PAST Tennessee GTG @ Mastermind's

[Code_Red]

My personal preference is .325 on the 261 with a cannon super mini

Thats what i was leaning towards. Let me check on funds and see if i can swing it.

the website says the mini S1-18-.050-.325 is in stock, but the super S1-20-.050-3/8 is out of stock. would like to save on shipping but if not, no big deal at all i completely understand. I enjoy supporting the small shops either way.

on the farm we cut mostly oak, hickory and ash (now with the ash borer its almost 100% ash as every single one is dead) but is the .050 enough to oil a 20" bar on a mmws 044?

 

[Icepick69]

Yes, I run that bar on my 440.

Ok i would say bring the supermini for sure, let me check on the super for dads. If you can get it in stock i would say probably bring it but will let you know for sure.

Thanks again, i appreciate the help.

@Icepick69 you can advertise in your signature for 15.00 a month.

No worries on posting links to your site though. I'm just letting you know that advertising in your signature is cheap, and very effective.

Do you have a grinder set up?

Chain grinder, not one on the whip that you are grinding on 1124s with. [emoji851]

Mike Lee,

This off the roll, 30 minutes to touch up chain, Race is gaining attention.

Let's iron out the details.

1. When:
Saturday Morning, between 0900-1100. More details to follow.

2. All chains will come off the same roll. Each individual will have 10,15,or 30 mins to dress up said chain.

3. Bar Length-?
4. Chain Pitch-?
5. Chain Gauge-?

I think whoever runs should pay for
That chain, (by the link), so the original purchaser isn't out a bunch of chain.

Let's do something longer: we all know a hopped up 084 can turn a 24" bar. [emoji41]

What else Mike?

I don't know. Just have to decide if we have time to squeeze it in. I know I'd like to get the chain builds done before lunch so we can eat and slow down some of the operators for the racing

My dealer does have a nice 25" Windsor NOS 14mm mount bar on the wall I've been eyeing.

The cannon is new.

24" is at home on a Ported 44.

So,

Let's get the "Official" races out of the way, eat lunch, and lazily prepare for the long bar Unofficial pull.

if I make it. we could use my cannon 36" s1 (stihl medium mount). I have 3/8ths or 404 tip for it.

if any large saws obviously they'd have to agree on a 36" large mount bar to use.

in .404 I have a roll of Stihl RS
in 3/8ths I have Stihl RSLH (square semi skip) I'd prefer to use this stuff over oregon as my chain sharpening skills aren't that great. IMO oregon isn't that fast off the roll.

I won't use my files on stihl chain. Not going to kill a new file for that junk. Oregon is much smoother out of the box as well. Oregon would see more gains as well.

Someone is bringing a square grinder to the GTG Mike, a RZ2, I think I heard.


Hello,
@Someone.

 

[mdavlee]

Dave is bringing one to sail. I can't remember if someone else was bringing another one to play with. Too many replies to dig through.

 

[mdavlee]

the stihl rslh is square ground. you'd just have to touch it up. how much is a file?

$12. I hate the angles on the stihl. Too blunt. I've quit buying it now and going back to all Oregon. I sent a few of the loops to Icepick to grind and maybe he can bring them back Saturday.

 

[mdavlee]

are you doing the long bar race? all the long bar racers except me want to use oregon is that correct?

No clue. Longest bar I have any good chains for is 28" 3/8". All the 110 dl are skip now I've been milling with.

We will locate a loop of Oregon chain for you.

I've got a spare 36" in both mid & large mount,( at your house) [emoji41].

Matt

How does 36" sound?

Seems everyone has that.

 

[mdavlee]

You guys can use up the roll of semi skip stihl. I just don't know if I'll spend the time to file one once.

 

[hseII]

all the oregon I tested was waay slow out of the box. Don't have the filing skills you guys have. So I'll pass.

Slow down Hot Rod.

Mike & I are discussing using a grinder on off the roll chain so everyone has the same chain, & it's a saw race, & not a chain race that Matt & Mike win. [emoji1303]

i have a 36 inch bar but no square filing skills i have both stihl and oregon 72lgx in rolls
