Random Thought Of The Day

[Normzilla]

Strict 7 pin here too.
Try a chain just shy of the witness mark, or even past it (triangle tooth) - those just sink through a bucking cut.
Narrower kerf, less chips to remove, less PH power loss.
I have 4 work chains past the witness mark right now, two of them 24" 84DL.

Awesome! I like that too, the wotness mark. That's good

On my Dolmar PS-550.
I have similar chains on three more saws but the damn phone camera didn't wanna zoom in on them.

lol my phonecam also do what she want.. if i want zoom in, the cam zooms everywhere, but not on that i want. its a old Samsung Smartphone and use it only to make Pictures or vids. otherwise i had thrown that thing over the Mountains.. i have to make 10 to 15 Pictures, to get one usable. Fug that Smartphones..

Sorting through some chains I purchased months ago.
Box says one thing, still welded shut bag doesn't say anything but clearly holds something completely different.
I guess I have to cut the bag open to make certain what I have!
Come on Oregon, is it too much to ask for info printed on the bag?!



Kinda fun though.
I figured out I have .325" chains I didn't knew I had.
I already purchased a Husqvarna X-Cut .325" that I didn't have to get after all.

Hi Wilhelm, is it Stihl or Oregon that print noting on the bag,
my Oregon chains have writing on the bags.

Oregon chain, absolutely no specs on the pouch.
It is a semi-chisel chain, 3/8" .058" 72DL, has a big "M" stamped on the cutters sides.

Other Oregon, Dolmar, Carlton chains I own have the loops specs or part number written in the pouch.
Oddly enough this one does not.

It is a loop I can utilize, semi-chisel will do fine for bucking dirty skidded firewood logs.
3/8" .058" 72DL is also my most used bar spec, so it turned out to be a good purchase.

Discovering a couple semi-chisel loops in this aged chain batch purchase actually means I have no need to buy any cheapo chains.
Win-win!!!

 

[Wilhelm]

This thing is so handy!

Thank You Nate @fordf150
Yes, I realize he hasn't been on here for a while!
That doesn't take away from the fact that we had good transactions in the past.

I used to have one few years back but then I lost it somewhere. Wish I can find another one. They are very handy!

Suspecting the big M for Mcculloch.

 

[Wilhelm]

I don't think so.

Yeah, it isn't if I have to shake it though!
The oil has been added by injecting into the fuel from a measuring syringe.
