Conifer, chain throwing, tell me about it:cursing: A subject worthy of its own rant thread.

 

My Echo top handle has a narrow nosed bar as standard and will throw the chain through conifer. But, my 200T with the standard bar, will also throw the chain so not so sure if this is due to the narrow bar:confused1:

 

Plunge cutting with the nose wears the bar out very quickly - especially if any dirt is involved:001_rolleyes:

Oregon, at one time (early eighties), did produce a so called 'safer' bar. Not sure what it was called but we called them banana bars due to their shape. Never caught on and you couldn't turn the bar on the saw either.
