Milling at the weekend and went through metal. Lost 2 or 3 teeth along a 7ft double-ended set up. Is it a worry, should I bother replacing or just crack on and resharpen what's left.

Got a big job on Saturday and keen to make sure its good to go. Obviously a second chain would be best but ....thoughts?😁

Cheers

One way  to make a skip chain i suppose ☺️  count the cutters lefts n rights an make them even. K

Yes, replace it for a big job and have at least a couple spare if you can.
Try it out on your own logs at some point.
Shouldn’t be an issue unless you notice excessive scoring.
How many teeth missing,which sides, how far apart?
Full comp,skip?

Anyone have a chain breaker/mender that's not needed?
