I have a hard time letting them go, but then I have a hard time letting anything go.

Just remember to keep the red and black ones and the orande ones and the blue ones!! And the green and yellow I guess too!

A saw chain tie strap with two rivits pre-set. Just stick it in the holes to tie the loop together add 2nd tie strap and spin the rivits.

Just don't make the loop inside out.......................................

Saves a little time and fumbling.

Oh! I always thought those were called master links.

I have only made a couple inside out; they don't fit the rivet vise too well upside down.

That's proof positive...
Stihl's are for sellin'...

Yes they are, but I have 1 or 20 that are not for sale. I take my Husky's and J-Reds to the timber, but that's because I don't like having to clean air filters in the field. Around here most people have never heard of a Dolmar or a Makita chain saw, but everybody knows the Stihl brand.

is that the voice of experience i hear?

Just relating some I read on the chainsaw forum.

This is the first saw that I have bought in six weeks. I went on the wagon, but the price was too good to turn down.

That is hard to imagine......................................................................

 

[67L36Driver]

The only thing that would prompt me to make my own loops would be a large supply of 7/16" with rivits & tie straps.

Darn old Remingtons. I did snag a Remy repair kit #49509 off evilbay containing a few rivits, side plates, a driver and two cutter teeth. Just in case..................someday maybe........................

Whichever way is OK with me. I've got it sitting next to my easy chair in the den.

The crank went out in the mail yesterday, I hope it works for you.

Anybody know where to get a meteor piston and rings for an ms390? I'm not having any luck.

You ever find what you needed? I found another possible source: Northwoodsaw

I have heard the amsteel rope is stronger than same size cable. Much less weight. Will test the rope this weekend pulling logs. 3/8 rope rated for 17500 lbs.
