Wheel vs Ski on snow/ice skis win by such a long shot its not even close. On ice tire's roll well - just not under power as they will spin. When...
I've been looking at the one Baliley's has CZ223 by T&S professional. I had a Simington 451C -- I like the Silvey RS II better. If the upgrades...
Your welcome!
No external clutch, the clutch cover.
I will be refurbishing my Silvey RSII with new parts from Lucky Dog Manufacturing. SCARR is who makes the parts. A new slide kit, chain guides...
Yesterday I decided to swap chains vs using the cordless Dremel. Feels like sharpening is faster. I would hazard to say that if the chain...
Great question. For me yes, it’s hovering around zero here in Alaska so yes, when I have to take gloves off and then touch metal. So a quick...
I’ve seen a few folks from various states posting 90 days and either 20 or 25%. RCBS is the obvious winner at 50%. Winter cut green spruce I’ve...
If you’re referencing to “those” WHY are you quoting me? I’m out YOU’RE THE EXACT REASON I WALKED AWAY FROM FHC BEFORE.

My part of Alaska is boreal forest and my trees are white spruce, they are telephone pole straight. The pile will occasionally shift and pinch....
Mostly the same here. I just keep a spare chain handy when the corner looks to damaged for a touch up with the Dremel.
A lost corner puts a damper on progress. Worth every effort to keep it cat claw sharp. As you stated cut enough you know exactly when it happens...
Truth!
13/73 white spruce.
When cutting volume one round 9”-10” diameter at a time is painstakingly slow. If I had plenty of logs that size I would be bucking with a 60”...
Amazon for $40-$50, three stones in the Oregon pack for $9. When short on time, the cordless will sharpen a full comp 32” loop in 2 minutes....
