Yep, they’re awesome. Where you running your chain holder? I run half way forward.

I'll have to go back and check later. I basically set it up trying to avoid the strap as much as possible. Where that landed I don't know.

Oh yeah, I got that part down. It's just I wasn't paying attention to what notch or marker point I had it in.

Also tomorrow I am going to pick up some wing nuts to use as backers on some of screws.

How much are the metal chain guides?

I just use a piece of fuel hose to preload the threads, keeps the adjusters from moving and keeps it easy to adjust

That’s a great idea. I’ve got one side stop bolt that vibrates loose all the time. Drives me nuts

I did a very similar thing...

Maybe some nylock wing nuts???

With the pressure from the fuel line I haven't had any come loose.

As I was working my way though the chains I can across one of the 3/8th I had done by hand. I had set the rakers too low and I didn't want to take the teeth back by hand.

But now with the grinder it was a breeze. I've dropped the teeth and I've cut the straps alittle.

Are you setting your dressers to match the factory wheel then measuring the angle? From there making small angle adjustments to get what you want? Great idea with the fuel line.

Work chain? Or race chain?
I see tie straps all rounded...

Starting as a race chain I did the straps yesterday. It was a chain I had made hand filing too aggressive and I didn't want to take back the teeth by hand. So I hung it on the wall. Came across it the other day as I was going though sharpening.

Good deal ...
