i just cant find anyone around here that knows how to sharpen square?
nope, here either, they don't know what is is. another logger stopped by a while back and i happened to be fileing. he said; wth are you doing to that chain? lol.
these guys here were very helpful with instructions......some where there is a thread.
 
Not a race chain, not a show queen because of the filings around and lil tiny bit of chrome pull on the offside of the gullet, the grind is a bit altered off the most common books, but wait-then it seems lika pretty f***ng damn good workchain...
mdavlee, you should be busted for promotion of hardcore pornography:surprised3:
well, gonna put my droolbib on...
 
That is a work chain. It cut pretty good if I remember right.
 
So on the subject of chain...

Been thinking on picking up an old round grinder and seeing how it does at hitting the riders?

Any one ever try this, set the angle to 0 deg dress the wheel almost flat with a slight forward angle, and go to town, hit both sides at once?
 
For being a chain with what looks like 100% depth guages, how come the bottom of the straps are so torn up?
 
hand fileing square, you will almost always hit the straps.

Mike i am running high rakers, .020. i get long chips and great speed if i filed the cutter right.
 
So I thought there was chisel chain (round and square) and round semi-chisel, but no such thing as "full chisel"

I am guilty of calling skip chain "full skip".

I erroneously called Juniper ERC for years.
Oh well. I've run SuperMike square, and can attest to its smoothness and "big chip make-y-ness"

Matt I run an oregon 510 for rakers and if you need I ran you though the set up. Also I can do 3/4" harvester chain with it.

Full skip would be not incorrect. There is fill complement, semi skip and full skip chain available.

Full chisel if you walk into a shop here is square chisel.

lol, i like to take one of you western boys into a "saw shop" around here just to see the stupid look on their face.
The stupid look on their face or to watch us get pissed off at the counter guy when we ask for a "long" 105 driver chain?

I've done a few loops for 40"+ in bars. I said something to the effect that he must have found some big trees. He goes "Nope, I just don't like bending over to cut my firewood" :nofunny:[emoji23]
I've got some of the long bars like that and they make my back hurt but when they are needed I'll pull them out.
