Good one Joe but don’t think I’m that much older than you!!Turns out John is my brothers' “old” next door neighbor.
No, no......... that's not what I meant!!Good one Joe but don’t think I’m that much older than you!!
I love hearing stuff like that.Wanna hear a small world story?
My brother told me long ago of a logger that lived next door to him that square filed his chains. I met him long ago, don't remember much about him though.
Brother sold house and moved out of the neighborhood.
In the thread above John Beisweinger offered me a loop of chain, said he lives 20 min. from me.
Turns out John is my brothers' old next door neighbor.
Kind of crazy, isn't it.......................
Around here I have found Windsor a waste of time in hardwoods but we have grey sandy soil being close to the coast , mix that with stringy bark and box bark and stihl or Carlton chain lasts the best . hope you have better luckI find square chisel lasts better than round chisel...got more support on the leading edge. Round chisel too pointy & gets smashed out of shape in hard wood. I just bought a roll of Windsor round chisel that I'll grind square to play with, but for me semi chisel is 99% what I use.... unfortunately

I mainly run Stihl rsflk. I found 2 loops of Carlton 3/8 050 skip I was bored so I square file the chain just to see what it would do? It’s a salad shooter!! In popular, cherry, soft maple it throws ribbons!! Very impressive.Been wanting to get a couple more loops of full comp and see what they do? I have no idea how these chains will hold up to say a full day of cutting firewood? So far all I’ve cut with them is cookies of popular and a few saplings. It was a fun experiment but definitely too much work to buy loops or a roll to run full time. Hoping to get a grinder somewhere down the road.
