as I am new to this site and to saws in general I have a couple questions.
first off let me tell you what I got
1. stihl MS250, bought new in 2012, with a man. date of 12/2011,
18 inch bar # 3005 008 4717 .325 mm
groove width of .063
68 drive link
2. stihl 017, bought used 2013, w/ a man. date of 01/09
14 inch bar #3005 000 3909
the rest is worn off
3. trimmer plus polesaw attachment for my string trimmer
that takes a 8 inch chain # r34
34 drive link, 3/8th pitch .43 gauge,
im trying to figure out what chains to buy for each saw and am trying to learn how to sharpen my own as well
I have a Oregon 511a electric sharpener but have no idea how to use it yet
so could you guys help a complete newbie out in selection and tips??
thanks
