At least my main work trip wasn’t harmed because I needed them. I think some of my babies got some water and hail hits. My NOS McCulloch bar went flying 5 feet to the concrete floor :(. Glass on all my tools and still uncovering more damage. Haven’t been able to check all my stuff as I’ve been clearing and taking care of kids too. We had golf ball size hail wreck shop too. My truck looks like it got a shotgun blast with giant pellets.
 
Glad y'all made it ok, sorry to hear what happened. Hope your house is liveable. Tools can be replaced. We had that storm come through here Monday night and it was rough, thought someone was pressure washing the front of the house and the big pecan tree was just getting whipped thats thirty feet from the house.

Semi-skip in pic
You described skip, though


Erik
He actually described a chain that does not exist (to my knowledge).

Full comp chain is "tooth skip tooth skip tooth skip...",

Semi-skip chain is "tooth skip skip tooth skip tooth skip skip tooth..."

Skip chain (sometimes called full skip) is "tooth skip skip tooth skip skip tooth skip skip tooth..."

Edit:
I've seen a special chain that has this pattern; "tooth tooth tooth tooth..." (There are no connecting straps, every drive link has a cutter.)
