[QUOTE="Czech_Made, post: 5832127, member: 140972"] I moved from the Eastern Red Cedar to white oak logs I need to rip now. While the ERC was easy - smaller too - and I could cut 100" long, 12" diameter log into 1" slabs using one chain, with the oak (100" long, 14-16" diameter) I feel 2 cuts a chain is about right. Yeah, I understand, this is a dumb question, but how long do you usually go between swapping ripping chain for sharpenned one? As of now I have two (24", 3/8") and I use them both, clean up and sharpen for the next day operations. Seems like for the oak I should have three chains to keep it at log/afternoon. [/QUOTE]
