There is a lot of geometry in each brand, model, cutter, etc., well beyond 'pitch'. Makes sense that there will be some variation.

yep agree, have heard in the past that the husky and carlton chain was the same, or same manufacture at one stage, could have been some of this.
Thus good results with the husky roller guide on it. Put the roller guide on the stihl chain, and different results due to what you have mentioned.
Ok, ran a 5.2 file over the tooth, its so far back the file is hitting the links, then brought the raker down with the stihl raker guide.
Put the husky guide on it, and the raker was slightly proud, tried to get a good picture, but the camera was more interested in focusing everywhere but where I wanted it to.
Also put the verniers on the thickness of the guides themselves.
In the end, its good to have a progressive raker guide that will suit the Stihl chains I have and I would recommend them to those running Stihl chains.
about time Stihl.

Right...I’ve picked them up on the way to work.
I won’t finish work until the post office is closed, so on Monday I’ll figure out the postage costs and update the thread with the details.
They will be smaller (maybe cheaper?) to ship if they are not in their packets, but I’m guessing most people will want them to stay in their packets?
If anyone has any thoughts let me know

Personally I say strip me down to the bare bones and smallest box. But everyone is different.
Noticed the Stihl gauge rides on the tie straps (due to the extended slot) and the Husky gauge rests on the drive link in the pics. That in and of itself would account for some differences between the two.

[emoji1312]he’s right you know...
No need for pks here. Just the steel
OK...the postage price will be the same whether you buy five gauges or one. I don’t know about more than five but we’ll cross that hurdle if we need to.
The gauges are £4.50 each.
The padded envelope is £0.50.
Postage options are as follows: -
1) Tracked & signed for airmail £9.50
2) Airmail £5.00
3) Economy £3.95
Airmail is 5-7 days and economy is up to 42 days.
I will ship when full payment has cleared.
I have one of each gauge at the moment; first to claim them on this thread will get them (as above will be sent when full payment has cleared).
PayPal friends and family please or add 5%? to the total, or you can send me a cheque.
I guess the best way is through PMs but I’m just as happy to arrange it all via an open thread if better?

Is the airmail tracked without signature or is the only tracking with the first option? Looks like the first batch was claimed but I’ll send a PM here in a bit with my order!
You are a good man and thanks for doing this for everyone!

The chair is against the wall...
I would like to have 1 or 2 of each of the 5 sizes. As soon as you get another set or 2, let me know and I will send PayPal payment immediately. YES, thank you for being willing to do this for the group. It's hard for me to understand why Stihl won't make this happen?
I also sent you a PM...

Royal Mail said that tracked and signed for is the only tracked option. The cheaper airmail option is neither
You have secured the first five.
...and I really like the way that so far everyone wants a multiple of five. It is going to be so much easier than getting one type for jack and 3 types for mark etc. I will do that if people don’t want a full set but it is easier for me to work in full sets 
...and lol as there is already a backlog I will place an order with the dealer tomorrow for more (when having a break from stump grinding)...so let me know if you want some in the next 16-18 hours to get them relatively quickly
