Hi, I just purchased a Stihl 075 that needs a little work and could use some advice as to how to best set it up to mill. I am planning on initially milling 12"-24" eastern cedar, pine, pecan, walnut and oak using a Logosol Timberjig, hopefully moving up to a n M5 or M7 as finances allow. Planning on using a 24" bar to start.
1. It has .404 on it now(sprocket, have no bar as yet), would 3/8 pitch be better?
2. If so should I use an 8 tooth sprocket or go to 9 or 10 to up chain speed?
3. What about the PMX chain that logosol offers, could it work on this saw?
4.Never having done this (milling) any other advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you to all,
Matthew
