Anyone have a picture of 3/8 or .325 pitch chain next to 3/4?? I can't seem to word it correctly for Google to understand

If you want something on hand, you can order this Oregon chain scale sticker, it compares the different sizes and if you mount it to a bench, it helps making chains easier, especially if you put a peg in the table on the left side, connect your chain to it, drag it out and mark the driver you want to punch.
Edit: Sorry, this is the clearest picture I could find off hand. Goes in order from top 3/4, .404, 3/8, .325, 3/8LP, 1/4.

What's the biggest chain there, and why haven't you run it on a saw at a GTG?

The big chain in the lower left hand corner is 7/8" Adkins harvester chain, each cutter is an individual forging.
I don't have anything capable of pulling that chain...

You don't have any chainsaw powered winches to pull it?
That's perfect thank you. I was talking with my father earlier about harvester Chains and how much bigger they are then my 3/8. Couldn't find a picture on Google.

The 7/8" chain was ran on the Von Ruden direct PTO powered saw. There are several folks with the hydraulic powered VonRuden but i believe those take a smaller chain. The hydraulic ones used a PTO hydraulic pump, The direct PTO powered ones are driven by a PTO shaft. I have one but I have never had the testes to run it.

Yes, it does look small, but I think it must have shouldered rivets, maybe even something carried over from roller chain. The hole in the drive link looks larger than the spun end of the rivet.
