HaHa, I thought so by what you posted..
It'll be good to see ya, it's been a few years now..
If you have anymore of those white cleaning sticks you gave me for my CBN grinding wheel, I'll gladly pay ya for em ??

Just bought my first chain grinder but I was a machinist for 40 years, very familiar with CBN. Where do you get them and , holding my breath, how much to they cost? Thanks.

Cost varies by company, the best I've seen/had are from a company called Radiac (nowadays) the sales Rep. Has a lot to be desired though...
About $190.00 including shipping, for my USG grinder..

lol. Not bad, last one I ordered for my grinder at work was $7,500. Glad I wasn't paying for that one.

Like a dummy I didn't think about a CBN wheel for chains. Did some searching and found a couple sites. Sucks I'll need 2 wheels, one for .325 and 3/8 picco and one for 3/8.

Remind me in a week .........
Anybody that listens to an Ol Phart like me about keeping the wheel clean and doesn't say "you don't have to clean a CBN wheel" I'll always try to take care of. Lol

I use the 3/16 wheel fo .325 to .404 < I don't have any tiny chain stuff..
My pole saw uses tiny chain, but a pole saw should never see the dirt.... Right ?/

True on that but my 400's are 3/8 S62 low kickback chain.

The old GTG rookie needs help. I was going to bring an Ech 400 to race but will there be a micro class to race this in? I looked but somehow can't find the classes. Was told there wasn't this small of a class. Sorry.

Nope, as the old racing saying goes, "Run what ya brung." If I can't run my 400 then I'm just a spectator that just bought 2 91VLX chains to race with that I don't need. Still going to be a good time.
