Well it certainly had enough oil in the mix . Kind of late in the season to be fogging for mosquitos though .:lol:

The only place I've ever found Oberg was on flea bay .Fact is that 1/4" round file I gave Stihlboy was an Oberg .

Webster W Va ,Chardon Ohio and the Ohio championships at the Paul Bunyan show are most likely the toughest competition to be found on the east coast if not the entire USA . It takes a lot of time not to mention money to be in a competative position at those events . Having ran at two of those...

Old Dozer Dan found a bunch of that planer chain NOS and gave me a call about it .I didn't have any use for it so he sold it on flea bay and got a fair amount of change for it . The stuff was supposed to simulate the old cross cut whip saws .

Imagine how many zillion trees have grown since from that basket full of hedge apples .

That person would be none other than Joseph F Gliden who became quite wealthy for the time period .

It isn't brutal ,it's just all we had back in the day .

What kind of tickles me about chain is all the sudden out of the blue they come up with a great new idea that in actuality is just an old idea everybody forgot about .This auto sharp stuff is one example and the so called rip chains another .

Well that climb milling is something I broke so many dovetail cutters that I finally gave up on it .Damned at 20 plus a cutter it about broke me . So I suspect then the stuff might be much like Thompson shafting in that you have to roll a mighty chip so as to pull the heat out with rather than...

When I refurbished the Homelite 2100 in my avatar it needed some welding .Seeings I have no provisions to so I had a buddy who owns a welding shop do it .It was mag and he made darned sure there was no grinding dust on it before he ever layed the TIG to it .

It must be a real chore to machine because they used a solid 1" stream of cutting oil if they broached the parts .Because they basically hand finished those turbine blades I suspect it was the grinding dust that caught afire . I know we were cautioned if we used any type of thing like welding of...

I could deal with nails but that belt buckle stuff kind of makes me a tad worried .:\:

Another little problem with titanium is the process to form it .A local company that is no longer in business ,XLO division of Textron ,had the contract to manufacture turbine blades for Rolls Royce .Every so often the residue of scrap from the process would catch fire which was nearly...

I think I might have one loop of Mac branded round chisel .I'll compare it if I can find it .Lots of 72 Oregon though . Now that titanium, don't know about that .The stuff makes a good jet turbine blade not so sure of a chainsaw chain though .

I've got a couple of those in Mac 10 series mount size .They are a pain in the behind as they are not reversable .

I'm pretty sure I have some 76 but it doesn't have the guard link like that chain .

Now there you go again .The ones I got from Baileys seem to do a better job on Stihl chains than Pferds .Go figure .:?

I doubt it's any harder that Danish wood .Just depends on what you are cutting .Most of mine is dead stuff . No big deal every couple of tanks because it seems I've done that forever .You're talking maybe 5 minutes on a 20" loop unless you rock it . Not all Stihl chain has safety ramps nor...

The Arbor pro files are less aggressive than Pferd .At least for me they seem to work better on Stihl chain .The Oregon files aren't even good on Oregon chain .

You hit the nail on the head, it's about two tanks then out comes the file . I've got an old antique Mac super 44A which is 87 cc and supposidely 6.5 HP .A Stihl dealer spun me up a 24" loop of Stihl .404 --063 chisel .The guy charged me 40 bucks which I thought was highway robbery at the time...
