    MS460 High Output Oiler Upgrade

    Been a while since I logged in. Glad to see the pictures are still working and others doing this mod. I have tried to mod the parts for an MS 261 since high output parts are not available. I dont think I went far enough/did it correctly. Mdavlee, if you have a picture, can you post exactly...

    Rope splicing

    I dabble but not for life support right now. From my research 16 strand would be my last choice (most challenging) type of rope to learn to splice. Can always send a sample out for break testing if you want to build some confidence. I started with double braid.

    What chain brand YOU buy when u need one now (not online)

    I refuse to buy chains locally for two reasons. 90% are junk safety chains Outrageous prices I keep enough new loops on hand to get me through a UPS delivery wait time.

    Climbing in Poison ivy???

    Having done some chain sawing on poison ivy, I would not reccomend it. It is possible to suit up enough to protect yourself but you would still need to clean up your gear and saws afterword.

    And this, boys and girls, is why we should ALWAYS wear our PPE

    Glad they were able to get it all put back together. Doesnt look like any function was damaged. This could have been avoided with a proper triple humped semi-chisel safety chain and a narrow tip bar.

    Cannon Bars

    I have a couple because they were the only option for the mount, length, pitch, and gauge I wanted. Been happy with mine. No bragging rights as the paint wears off pretty quick.

    Echo CS 310

    I believe the stock 14" comes with a 52 DL 3/8 LP chain. A041 mount. Not sure what they expect it to cut with the double safety humps, maybe bread? I put GB 12" bars (from LCS) with 45 or 46 DL 3/8 LP Stihl PS chains. I did a thread on removing the cat. Be aware of welded muffler vs...

    Echo CS 310

    Thats a good price. Paid half that for just a muffler last year. Not bad saws after removing the cat and with a decent chain.

    Baileys breach dates to Dec. 2011

    I got bit more than once. Will give them some time to get their stuff organized and will probably shop with them again. Just part of shopping online. Still a lot easier than trying to find stuff locally or at multiple vendors. Hope this doesn't ruin their business. I do think they should...

    Sharp Chain Vs. Dull Chain...Photos

    I have learned that sharp and dull are relative. Just for reference. The chain that made these chips was called dull.... because the cutters has some grime on them in the pic.
