Old chains??

[tommer9]

And against all H&S regs

 

Its not the Brogio, and in Italy no its not......he works out there.

[Lorry thompson]

They generally go into the scrap pile, although some go to a mate with a brushcutter attachment that uses them for the cutter......its from italy abd absolutely awesome!!

 

That sounds good mate where can you get them from? We used the ally chain attachment but they didn't last long

[tommer9]

Italy.

I have trawled the net to find one, but no luck, and have lost my mate's number now.

Dont think H&S exists out there:001_tongue:

[tommer9]

Not sure it does!! It is an amazing tool. He brought one bak a few years ago, and we gave it hell for ages, cuting aroung bits of granite and all sorts with no nasty lethal throw-offs of bit of metal, The H&S issues with the brogio one were due to the fact that the ordinary chain it used wasnt up to the job, Chainsaw chain is so tough that this wasnt an issue, and it left a fine mulch of everything it cut.

i knew of someone who used to melt them down to make knives with.

[tree monkey]

apparently they have a cool pattern on them when made into knives

must investigate this one

[robbo 110]

i may be wrong but the minute it's heated it changes its temper.../ hardness its the cooling process that you add carbon to the steel etc etc, ??
