FOUND IT Big bar

[davidwyby]

Like 60” for my 3120. I got some stuff I want to mill that’s too large for my 42” and I might get into some stuff that will require it for bucking.

This one better

I think my big cannon roller nose is a 60. But the bar mount was cut out for use with the big 090 style mount.

Just some food for thought. In my experience, a big cannon bar or the like, with a nice wide "belly," is THE ONLY option. Especially for a milling application. I have a standard width bar at 56" and it has considerable "droop" in the center when on its side for milling. Not cheap, but if you're in that range, it'd be a must for me. It's night and day difference the way it hangs when in the mill.

I agree, fat belly bars tend to cut more true, but are heavy when packing around for felling operations.

There’s nothing like packing out the heavy saw with the long fat belly and jacks.

Especially when it's mounted to an 090AV

That said, I can't even hardly carry an 090av with a 60 inch more than about 30 yards lol

You’re making my little back hurt thinking about packing something like that anymore.

I just thought of something…now I need chain for it! 3/8” stihl would be preferred…not sure if semi or full chisel, I have some 32” semi I need to test, hopeful. Or if I can get the Duracut DPX to cut, I might see if loggerchain can spin me some of that. (See my “random pics of cutters” thread for dpx vs Raisman, stihl pics not up yet)

@HYPERSAWS how many DL?

What gauge?

 

[HYPERSAWS]

It is like 180 I will have to double check when I get back from work.
3/8 63 gauge

What I think is A spare roller nose showed up for this bar from BC today but I don’t think I talked to anyone about it or ordered one…
