    I will guess 88 loops.
    I have seen that every labor and every skill which is done is the result of rivalry
    between a man and his neighbor. This too is vanity and striving after wind.

    Well Sean, Tim told me that there were 75 of them when I called about them this morning.

    Don't worry I get the next batch. (if there is one)

    my guess is that the guy selling them works at a Home Depot where they have a rental department. I'm pretty sure that when a rental saw comes back they don't bother sharpening the chain but just throw a new one on. Does anyone know what 'brand' chain they put on the Makita saws at HD? Then you would know what type of quality you're looking at. I looked at my HD rental saw that I bought recently and the only identifying marks are on the drive links--two vertical ovals bridged by one horizontal oval.

    Nope, he owns a small engine repair shop...They are all Stihl chains, both round and square ground full chisel...He said he got them from a commercial account that sold/closed up...

    I had a hunch it might be less than 100. But I got to the game too late to guess. Congrats on a great score. I get all my chains once used from a Stihl dealer/rental shop. They're 25" RSC for $5/ea.

    Have a 201T that doesn't run like you expected? Need a new one that's already modded and ready to go? PM me for details.
