I’ve found the same issues with the stihl es lite bars. I didn’t realize what was going on until I bought a sugi hara bar and had more oil than I needed. The sugi hara has a significantly larger hole. Probably double the area.

Thanks everyone for letting me come rip the tarp and break the wheelbarrow handle. All joking aside I’m really grateful to be a part of this group.

I’ll take #33. Two loops of Oregon 72cl chain

I bought a 72dl hexa chain a while back out of curiosity and was pleasantly surprised at how it cut. It bore cuts really nice and seems to be real durable. I was actually expecting it to not live up to the hype. It looked like a gimmick to me. I would put it ahead of stihl RS round chain but I...
