Wait till you see all these bad boys runnin at the GTG... I figure there will be some snotty ones there...
I back hand em'... Especially when they ain't workin' as hard as I know they should be.. ;)
I wanna see you file the left side cutters though... ;)
[ATTACH] And there you have it... That's Brian there with the saw and file... :D
If the working corner and top plate are sorta sharp, I don't doubt it'll cut, but you'll want to make a proper cutter, and it'll cut better.. And...
Ha! No... Got enough big iron... Don't really want a 385, but it's what they picked for the build off..
I'll bet Mike has a quick vid somewhere of him making a couple final swipes he can post to make this make more sense.

Way over priced... It's a collectable model, but damaged badly. It would be worth $500 if there was nothing broken/missing.. And that thing don't...
It is.. You are correct... The wide, ramped depth guides are it's downfall as far as speed of cutting goes.. I've found it rather difficult to...
Slow.... Fast.... It's all about "perspective" John... :)
I think that saw came with a 20" bar in 3/8" pitch / .050 drivers.. Question is, would it be 72 or 70 drive links.. Either way, your local farm...
Just get a new drum with the 7 pin spur. The likelyhood your clutch needs replacing is low. when you pull the drum, just remove the clutch and...
Howdy John!! You been stayin warm up der? I guess Grantsburg didn't have the saw races a T-Dawg's this year?
