Yes all locust. It weird , seems one branch of it rotted. The rest is basically petrified. Will be sharpening again later!!I have some pretty small ones I like to break off using them in 1/4" stuff.
My favorite are the blue point straight flue extractors, they come in a kit that's sold on the snap on truck, but I bought mine off ebay for quite a bit cheaper.
Here's a kit missing the small ones for $.99, but shipping is $30, and he's only got one sale.

That's cool, never thought of that. I have some extractors that are straight and tapered just like that, but with a sharper edge that's hollow ground iirc.
I've cut a grove into the end of many bolts to use a screwdriver. You can cut a pretty fine grove in a bolt with a Dremel.
When I was at a muffler and brake shop working on 5/16 and up many times we would run the nut the wrong way if we suspected it would break(usually from rust), most times it would break leaving it outside the manifold, then you just weld a nut onto it. Then with the y-pipe down you had plenty of space to heat the manifold and get on it better.
Nice load.
All locust? Don't often see it rotten like that.
Funny how the older 660 82cc has rubber grips on the bar yet the slightly newer model 754 88cc is just bare aluminum.I can bring a couple big bore remingtons down to your studio and we can do a sound check and a jam session!![]()

I think you got your money’s worth!Made some cuts with this little 3/8x64 on a Dolmar 5105 today.
How do you guys think it did?
I'll be tossing it after it dulls as I have a few new in the box sitting here, it's at or beyond the witness marks.

I'm going to go out on a limb and sat it did great. I've hear that they perform real good right before they go out. I haven't run one down there but that's what I had heard.Made some cuts with this little 3/8x64 on a Dolmar 5105 today.

We somehow didn't get any time in last week (probably my own fault.) We did get some today though! I did 4 or 5 myself around lunch and then my girls volunteered this afternoon... and by volunteering I mean they were bickering until I had enough. Now we are gonna do things my way - firewood style! So they completed 10 loads before dark. By the end they were getting along great and laughing. But I had them make sure their headlamps were charged just in case they needed more reminders this evening. If they help tomorrow they may make a few bucks, but not today.The only young kids are my own! At 13 and 15 they are able to help... it's the willing part that needs some work. But we are gonna get some good quality family time in this week.
Yep, it was a free chain probably 4 yrs ago, that came with 2 or 3 others and a free sawI think you got your money’s worth!
Come back in now, hope you got the rope attached, we need to take that one down lol.I'm going to go out on a limb and sat it did great. I've hear that they perform real good right before they go out. I haven't run one down there but that's what I had heard.
Not quite, but it cut just fine.Them's yer racin' chains!![]()
