It would be a real shame to let this forum continue to circle the drain. I know many members double, triple or even quadruple dip with other...
Nice little score Brad; I know how much you like your soft maple and cherry. I applaud you for hoarding in this heat. I went for an hour long walk...
When you say one of your two biggest obstacles is your wife, what do you mean by that? Would this Richard Proenneke-esque cabin build cost you...
Definitely elm.
Large growth rings and the way the grain is kind of torn, plus the dead/barkless description says elm to me.
Good to see you got something else from that score before the real heat sets in. Agreed, working in the sun and moving the rounds a long ways to...
Fresh off the bench. Now to find a job for this big mother lover… [ATTACH]
I believe jtstromsburg has some personal experience in this role.
I get the frustration. For me anyway, I'm trying to put a positive spin on things. I throttled back my time on here considerably which has given...
Nice work dropping those future BTUs Jason, and I’m happy to see you’re putting the 372XP to good use. :thumbs:
I was trying to figure out where I’ve seen that face before and you nailed it perfectly :rofl: :lol:
If you hit all the right chords, taking possession of this score could be in the cards for you... [ATTACH]
Gotcha. I noticed this guy had a Husky 61 for sale on eBay recently, (not that I need another one :whistle:) but if it was the same family I'd...
Not that I've noticed, and I've used my Vanguard loops a lot the last couple years on my 18" bar set ups. It performs just fine, and I've even...
Yeah I free hand grind them. If I was ever given a large pile of Vanguard chains I'd probably strap them down to some kind of holding fixture and...
Honestly if I were you I'd just run the chains as-is. When it comes to filing the rakers, use a flat file if your jig thing doesn't pan out.
It's about a 10 minute job standing at a bench grinder, or a 1 minute job followed by a flying chain and profanity when you grind the tip of your...
It probably won't :whistle: IIRC files either skip off, or get trashed quickly. On my Vanguard loops I grind the rakers so it's a non-issue. I...
That's the Vanguard I was telling you about. Safety chain. I have a few loops. Works fine but the raker is a PITA to take down.
