Crofter said:Mike, a thought just occurred to my idle mind. Seems like it is about time for someone to find a flaw in something you have said and a bunch more jump on the dogpile to discredit you, Lol! I find interesting your approach to break down the process of what is happening at the micro level. I got teased a bit by a couple of our illustrious members (smiling) for examining the different chips produced by square filed vs round filed chain and the different appearance of the cut surfaces. It makes some peoples puzzlers sore so they call it over-analysing: that kind of exercise has entertained me for a lot of hours. Maybe you can't put it in the bank but it sure beats watching TV.
Tree Machine said:Pretty awesome thread, Guys. I went up to my Grandpa's place this last week. I was rifeling through his garage and he had over a hundred spent 16" chain loops hanging on a wall! I don't think the guy ever threw a used chain away.
I was fingering through the collection, seeing if there were any salvagable chains there. I realized he used .050 gauge, and I use .058, so nothing there for me. All of the chains had teeth that were about halfway through their useful life, and then he retired them. Upon closer inspection I noticed not a single chain had the rakers filed back. I saw a lot of rakers that had the tippy tops rather highly polished and a good number of the chain's teeth were actually sharp, but it all came clear; no one had ever told him about filing down the rakers.
