The links I used might not work for everyone so I have edited the post and attached them now

Great thread, here's some more info for the rest of you nerds McCulloch - The wood cutters Lots of good info in there that covers the basics. I was not able to confirm this but I believe it was made by or with support from Carlton. Stihl Chipper chain sharpening Not confirmed but I believe...

Thanks! That is a lot more information than I have been able to find so far. Hopefully I can find a catalogue that showed them from that era I'm in the process of moving house but I will make a video of it in action in the next few weeks

Picked up this old Dolmar grinder last week. Does anybody know anything about them? USG wheels seem to fit it. Only has 35 degree marks on the base for rotation and has to be the heaviest dam grinder I have picked up

I picked up a Gradberg one of these a few weeks back for $3. It's a useful little thing to have around

The sharp force is made by Pferd as well. They have made a few different designs of one step sharping tools. It's possible that the new husky guide is made by then as well

I have a few Stihl 08S saws that run 17" or 21" 404. They use it to try and create some chain speed for the low reving older stuff

This is on the edge of what it can do but it did get the job done for me for a while until I bought a bigger saw. It has spend most of its time over the last few years pulling shortish 3/8 setups just because I like running it. This video was just to show that it can do it if needed and it is...

If you get stuck let me know. They are available here in every dealer for $12AUD. They are small and light enough to fit into a regulator envelope so I can probably post them for a few dollars. 1USD = $1.52AUD

Dolmar 7900 pulling a 24", 76DL 404 chain just because it can

Looks like I can get both lines here for around $36AUD for the pair so I'll order them today I'll put a post in the video thread of it running

Thanks, I will order both and give it a birthday present Might as well just add a pic of what it was doing on the weekend

I'm having some issues with my (early) 7900 leaking bar oil from the lines at the elbow, plastic thingy again. I remember packing a O ring up against it years ago to hold pressure to stop it leaking but it's causing trouble again now so I better fix it properly If I order part no. 038 245...

That will cut OK. You can adjust things to suit the power and wood type you are cutting. A cutter like that will allow a little more depth gauge if you want a bit more cut speed and it will hold an edge well

I don't think it's sold in the US. You guys get the 050 gauge S83G but where I am (Australia) most husky stuff is 058 gauge so we get the S85
