I know what you mean. I put a Carlton nk chain on a regular bar and it's much quicker in up to 8" or 12" wood. Above that, you run out of chip clearance and it gets slower than .325. But they are a light saber in small stuff

I gave up on the nk but you just explained why it was much slower than the .325.
i had on a saw a few year's ago i thought maybe it was a bad chain or something it was much slower than the .325 i took off so i switched back but didn't look into why it was so slow.

Good. I have to work at 2PM though.

I spent the morning at my workbench getting the grease stain off of my ban hammer.......LOL!

One thing is for certain, the use of the word " I" in a sentence has dropped dramatically recently dot dot dot

Like any chain the gullet is very important, probably more so with NK. Small saws and small wood it should be making you smile.

A beautiful mid 60's day and I am spending my afternoon chauffeuring my wife store to store as she shops.

I did get to go to Cabela's and might get to go grill shopping too...

Happy weekend all!!!

I might give it another chance one day but i bought over a dozen stihl rs .325 18inch and 15 stihl and oregon rs and lgx 3/8 20 inch chains off a guy they were new when i use them up i might try the nk for my 257 and 261.

Yep. It's good for sub 16" bars, or maybe sub 12" wood 30-45cc saws. I really liked it on the 026 til I tried noodling with it. Not that I'd do that often with an 026, but when I buried the bar was when I noticed it really slowing down. It would laser right through an 8" maple, but slowed down when I went with the grain.





Sorry for using "I" so many times. Sometimes it's necessary lol

I think 170 hp and 100ftlb may be a bit much for that set up with 280 lbs behind the rear tire lol.

Not even close, both posts together, still not even close...

Porting out the oil holes on yet another Power Match bar. They are just to small for proper oiling especially on the longer ones in my opinion. Not sure what Oregon was/is thinking here, but it ain't working.

(I) don't get it either. On the one (I) shortened for using a bigger sprocket, (I) drilled an 1/8 or 3/16" hole through it right into the groove. Oil gets through there like it's supposed to.


Got it down to 3 (I)'s. I'm working on it

My post on the I's was a reference to jmssaws posts. Figured everyone would get that, guess not. Everyone else is fine with the word "I". Carry on as usual.

Been taking a little diamond burr and opening the hole up and flaring it out seems to be much better. Might it be so the bars and chains wear out sooner? I always go straight to the tin foil hat conspiracy theory.

I'm out the shortest bar I own is 18inch lol
I've always been happy with stihl .325 rs for the 50cc saws haven't used enough oregon or anything else to form an opinion.

I understood who you were referring to. But it got me laughing so I rolled with it

Still don't know the best tool to open up the oiler holes. I've ruined a couple diamond burrs, as well as dulled a few cheap drill bits. A rounded tree shaped double cut is my new favorite I suppose because it's done a few and it still cuts
