3 cube chain

[Fruecrue]

When you gonna break it?

How big of a saw you guys suppose I could run this thinned chain on? I want to try a few different chains on the 3 cube to see what's fastest. And may end up replacing my 4 cube chain with this one.

You'd be surprised. I used 3/8 lopro for milling, ran it on a 36" bar and 8 pin sprocket on my ported 395. It lasted until I tried to take a full 31" cut of red oak. It made 2-1/2 10' long cuts before it pulled a drive link apart.

It cuts decent, not blow your mind fast like I wanted. Apparently there is more to it than what I did. Had a few tips, we’ll see how it goes.

Tips you say, share I ask.

It’s still tight from spinning it together, I spun a few of em too tight. It needs run time to loosen it up

Run time in a dry walnut branch is not the answer.

Rivet is no longer fully supported. Need to replace the toof before I run it anymore.

The branched needed cut up... the chain needs run time...
Who knew. Lol

Don't feel to bad. Matt broked some off of mine.

Indeed...

Gotta leave some support steel...

Even in “soft” wood, they’ll barf teeth..

I’ve killed a few of JR’s chains in test wood too. So don’t feel alone.

You need to go see a dentist for a new toof!
