I have a bunch of big, dirty, oak logs that excavators muddied up when they pushed the trees over. I have been using a scrub brush and then I used a small, portable pressure washer but it quit working. Now what. (No power, no water line out in the woods.) So, wondering about just getting a carbide chain. Do they cut ok? Cleaning the dirt off takes time. Sandy dirt, caked on. Some of these logs have quite a bit and the rains are not coming; this area is in a severe drought, never seen anything like this in winter!
I bought a semi-chisel thinking it would be better but I really can't tell any difference in how long it lasted before dulling. I also do know one can do a plunge cut to help but I haven't mastered that yet. I wish a carbide chain would be the answer. Expensive, I am sure, but the labor in this is quite a bit.
