Saw video thread

24" 3/8 Archer loop touched up a bit.

24" 3/8 Husqvarna /Oregon Vanguard loop touched up a bit.

Both chains are making chips the size of noodles. Am I doing something wrong?

I've heard it mentioned that rakers too high will slice long chips, where lower rakers will dig and break off a smaller chip

Looks like they are cutting good to me.

Makes sense to me Kevin. The Vanguard chain cut the same way. Crosscut noodles.

Depends on the wood type, chain setup and where you are cutting it regarding the size of the chips I found in my experiences. Closer to the stump/ground will make bigger/longer chips sometimes since the fibers are going in different directions. The more torque a saw has the bigger the chips as well when you lean on it. Too much chainspeed in hardwood just makes dust and dulls the chain faster.

So the chain is good for my slow saws. LMAO [emoji2957][emoji16]

The ported 461 I had in the videos earlier I broke in today falling. This is where it ran the best. It’s probably 14.5 before a long cut where it heats up and leans out... why you have to be careful not to set them too far on the edge, you want a bit of safety margin. 14.8k is where it likes to be. Even there it will 4 stroke sometimes in real small wood if the chain isn’t angry enough. I have to say I’m very impressed with the fuel economy on this thing, downright thrifty. I forgot how good 461’s were on fuel.
