I'm thinking of buying a carving bar and want to know whether I should go with a dime size tip or go with the quarter size. I have been using angle grinders with various cutters on them and they have worked fine, but after watching a guy use one of the carving bars , it made me want one of them. I also have a 141 Husky and a 240 Husky to mount the bar on. I'm leaning toward using the 141 as it oils a little better than the 240.I'm not really wanting to get into a long discussion about the evils of home owner saws, just your opinion on this.I also understand that these carving bars have a tendency to run hot and need a lot of slack when adjusted.Does this help with the heat problem? Whatever advice you can give will be cheerfully appreciated. Thanks
