So how far are the adjuster holes from the tail of each bar? Stihl ES - 1.5" [IMG] Sugihara - 1.75" (ish) [IMG]
The bars laid out on top of one another with the adjuster holes aligned on each bar. [IMG] The tails. [IMG] The tips (again, the adjuster...
Here we go... The total length of each bar from the tail. [IMG] This is the length from the center of each bars adjuster holes. [IMG] 1/4"...
I don't believe the oil hole placement is an issue. If its closer to the adjuster holes, it'll definitely be over the slot on the saw. If it...
I see what you're getting at Randy. But, how do the tips line up when the adjuster holes are stacked? It doesn't matter how much tail the bar...
I've got one of the ryobi saws on the bench. I tried to rit dye the stupid yellow plastic bits the other day. Didn't turn out so well, so now I...
I have a '09 Kawasaki Brute Force. It's quite the machine. V-twin fuel injected. It's not the best for gathering wood, I'd rather have a SxS,...
All the shagbarks I've cut have been hard on chains. Fencerow trees are always tough, but try a shagbark in a fencerow. You'll be wishing you...
Well, I did it. The 2253 is on order. Now the worst part... the wait!
Its a shame all these great brand names are now tarnished. I figured Delta isn't what it once was, but it's really that bad? Maybe I'll keep an...
I'm not one to try to tinker with the different angles. As long as its sharp and cuts well, I'm happy. I've always used a 30° top plate and tend...
Shagbark? I'll pass. Stuff eats chains like they're going out of style.
True, very true.
Big white oaks with the smell of black cherry and the drying time of ash. I like cutting bigger trees, they make the wood add up fast.
I'd like to try one, but they don't make them in .050". All my 3/8 chains are that gauge :(.
Right on. I just used it for the first time with a 7/32 on an RSC, which was previously sharpened with a 13/64 file. I didn't have any odd...
I hear ya there! I will probably end up putting new holes in the bar so I can tension all my chains properly. I'm a little pizzed about it,...
Ron, I've seen that graph before and it's very impressive! The big question is; how thirsty is she now? I hear ported 66's like a lot of fuel.
Good to see you're here, Matt! Fowlerville is growing. How long has it been since you've been here? They're building an O'Reillys auto parts...
I just picked up the Husky roller this past weekend. I have yet to try it out, but I like the idea of sharpening on the bar. I currently use a...
