I've been looking for an easy, quick way to measure firewood (16") on the go while cutting. I did a search here on AS for firewood gauges/guides for saws, and found some interesting info on homemade rods, manufactured rods, and use of a saws bar. Does anybody have experience using this product? (I hope I do the link attachment properly):

It's also sold at Bailey's (in the chainsaw parts and tools section, in the chainsaw parts and accessories sub-section) for $9.95 plus shipping. Also shows the parts better at the Bailey's website.
Also I have done a search on saw tuning with a tach. Saw in question is my 260 which I recently opened the muffler and did the carb swap. I've been to the Madsen's website and read the threads on how to tune a saw by ear, and I feel like I've got it right. I'm curious about exactly what the actual RPM's are. Does anybody have experience with this tach:

It's also sold at Bailey's (in the chainsaw parts and tools section, in the chainsaw parts and accessories sub-section) for $69.95 plus shipping. Maybe I'll go into town, to one of my local dealers, and see if they'll put their tach on my saw. BTW, I've tried the 16" bar with RM chain, very nice! I know a RS chain will be even better.
