Square VS Round

[concretegrazer]

I'm curious to see how they respond to more power.

I'll be cut after cut

I put the picco on the ported 026 yesterday. Need to check something as chain isnt pulling through easily. Thinking hitting the bumper pads on cover.

Probably is. Might be able to put washers on under the cover or just start it and rev

Just be sure to shake up the running order of you choose option 2.

I think we have it figured out in the chain build off thread. Will look at it when I get done with the 272.

He needs to use Shaun's chain

I think this was the 3120 chain

 

[Cut4fun]

ATOP one I entered in that build. No stoning, no tunneling, no raker work, no hitting back of cutters etc. Like work chain just to back rivet.

 

[Cut4fun]

The first chain ran was a totally stock 60 driver oregon lgx average time for 3 cuts was 2.89. 3120 9T
Chain A 2.47 2.28 2.40 average 2.38
Chain B 2.50 2.57 2.31 2.48
Chain C 2.94 2.65 2.56 2.71
Chain D 2.53 2.54 2.35 2.47
Chain E 3.03 2.50 2.65 2.72
Chain F 2.72 2.66 2.91 2.76
Chain G 2.71 2.63 2.40 2.58
Chain H 2.75 3.06 2.81 2.87

Square filed 404

My next purchase will be 063 404 in a 32" bar on my 660.

I think this was the 3120 chain

That one had some healthy stoning done.

That one had some healthy stoning done.

Yes it did. It was worth it by the results. Just .1 tenth separated 1-3.

Did I hear big powa and chains?

Looks almost like the teeth on a cross-cut saw. Maybe one day I'll learn to file like that.

Wanna sell one...

Does anyone use a silvey square grinder. we have one but I never use it. I suck at it and the chain goes dull too quick. It was just easier for me to use the USG. I hand file some round, and suck at it as well.

I'd like to practice some more though, and hopefully mature into a skilled square filer.

 

[mdavlee]

I've had 3 grinders. Which one did you get Justin?

 

[P.M.P.]

I do round been thinking of a venture over to the Squarewitchery (dark side).The Squaredude was trying to but his force was not strong enough.He did give me some leads that I need to follow up on.
