damn you

Man, for someone in my shoes where im not sharpening to make a living and just want to learn on a bench grinder, that seems like a great price.

Still waiting for the bench talk video he said he would do but I know hes been busy.

If I can make it this year ill bring mine for whomever wants to molest it. That 681 looks good as always randy!

wow thats such a price difference from baileys. Guess its worth shopping around for sure.

I agree! I bought a 261C-M from randy in 2014 and it was my first ported saw...... I said the same thing "wow" and it is my go to for everything except big oaks

I will go that route. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Philbert, thank you so much. I was looking at the two models you posted. I can’t seem to find any difference on baileys besides price? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did a quick search and couldn’t find anything on the forum but I had a friend recommend a jolly sharpener instead of the Oregon and from what little I can find it doesn’t look like there’s much difference between the Jolly and the Oregon 620 with the hydraulic clamp at the Jolly is $150...

Hey thanks for checking back, I never did pull the trigger. I ended up having to choose between that and new tires so the tires ended up being more important no matter how much i debated the wife.

:campeon: Awesome thread Scott. For someone with a visual learning mind and who knows little more than "ported saw = fun" this is truly cool to see what all goes into this process from the builders. Keep it up!

Does that mean that their micron moly ingredient is scheaffers synthetic formulation of moly? Reading the msds to these oils is like trying to read Chinese to me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

lol I have been slow on night shift and have been able to read about 200 of the 640+ pages of this forum and have come to the conclusion that for the average user, this debate is way overthought. I can see where guys that go through gallons a day and make a living with their saw would want to...

I have no dog in this fight and I use whatever randy tells me to use so don't flame me for this but im just passing along information that I have. I had a decently long conversation with the schaeffer rep a while back and I don't remember it word for word but I specifically asked him why it...

I will for sure take the time to read the thread once I get a free minute. The guys on here have been super helpful for any questions I have posted and all of the guys I met at the one GTG I went to we’re all just awesome and more than willing to talk about whatever. I’ll keep you guys updated...

Thank you again for the reply. I think i may invest in the oregon with a couple of the CBN wheels and go to town learning.

now that you are as experienced as you are do you just buy chain by the roll now and not individual chains? If i get a sharpener, I could see where it would be convenient to have different types of chain to throw on for different situations rather than one chain and one grind fits all.

I am an engineer by day and I no doubt have a tendency to overthink and over-research things so jumping in will be against my norm but im sure youre right so i will get my hands on one as soon as i can and just start practicing. Im a perfectionist and love experimenting with things so i have no...

@Khntr85 thank you for the reply. I think I will save the money and go with the Oregon and a CBN wheel and hone my skills. If I then get proficient and decide to start doing it regularly I’ll invest in the USG. Any resources you can think of off the top of your head that you used when you...
