    The shock to the powerheads with that repeated abuse probably leads to clutch and crank pto failures.
    Nah Randy, the ticket is you go up a tooth or two which lessens the blow when it bogs................but it does cut faster!

    That "how short is too short thread " got me to thinking , and all the vids I see where cookie cutters are rocking the saw on the dogs. I never had a sharp saw that I wanted to touch the dogs if I wanted a fast cut .
    So that got me to thinking about wether their chains were sharp . . Rr
    And I figured I could learn something . . All I needed was a way to get someeone in hardwood ountry to divulge their knowledge of what it takes to cut hard wood . I just couldn't accept that after 40 years a better way hadn't been found to sharpen a chain than what I did as a kid in Maine .
    funny you should mention guys doggin a saw in to make it cut. when folks pick up one of my saws at a gtg they cant hardly get them to cut. i have to explain to them that the chain is sharp and you dont need it dooged in. early in the day on a fresh chain you really have to watch doggin it in or it will stall the chain. but pull the dogs back a tad and watch it eat . when the chain stops pullin the saw in and you need the dogs ,its time for a touch up.

If you dont like what your reading stop reading it and find another fourm. If your a tradesman you dont write words all day, you work with your hands and use skill to operate machines that can kill you in 2 seconds. Your always thinking about your next move to stay alive and be productive. So at the end of the day your not sitting around trying to figure out how to spell a word corectly or worry about if you used a period where an comma should go. Not every one goes to school to learn a trade!
    Well, that's one side of the coin. The other is the fact that there are folks that actually paid attention in elementary school, let alone HS, and can string a decent sentence together. It is only fair that occasionally, for the sake of sanity and English itself, someone brings it to the Internet's attention that English is being butchered; you'll notice the OP cleaned up his posts later. God knows how often I have to hold my breath. I mean, a paragraph is not even teenager level word craft folks. This isn't rocket science. He goes on a rant about folks on YouTube aiming low, and now you want folks to aim even lower with their 'education'. Sure, why not...

    Unfortunately for the English, we have to [ab]use their language to communicate, whether in person or on the internet. I truly believe that asking someone to exercise a 6th grade level of competency is nothing to disparage. It isn't demanding perfection, it's asking for decent communication.

    Carlton File O Plates used to have an A hole and a B hole . For the depth gauges . You could take a new loop of chain . Even just A hole the riders and it cut good . Now, they changed the grind and the rub thru the wood not cut .

    I pretty much knew that if I couldn't take it then I better not dish it out .
    But whats a guy t do when he sees a guy with a juiced up saw face and do a bunch of wiz bang cuts on the back cut and beat in a couple wedges . When all he had to do was cut it up and it would have gone right into its lay . . And the wind wasn't even blowing .
    Wasteing time and energy isn't fallin timber .

    Bingo Sam, and I have noticed like you say even new chain I am hitting the rakers, not the same until you do. I had a chain the other day on a 46mag, filed 3-4 times by hand. File o plate on the rakers .25 I think maybe .30. Hit wire that the tree grew around it was inside the wood. I was pissed, because I had that chain perfect. Pulled a new chain out of the box in the field, it was not as sharp or self feeding. To the folks who pick apart our spelling and grammar, well you understand our pain, because watching you on you tube is equally annoying. But then again I never said I was a college professor either.
