<p>Ha ha - had me worried as I posted them myself - first class - should have been as bit faster than that - I hope these ones fit.</p>
-
<p>Nope you understood right Ross! It is strange how on the 10" bar it needed an extra drive link! Seems in the 12" dime tip it doesn't... I buy an MS150C in order to double check this as getting a bit painful now!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Do you have anyone near you who can take a drive link out? I will re reimburse any costs - or I can send you over 68 drive link chains and you send those couple back. Let me know. Rob</p>

<p>Hi Shaun - yes I would just go with a 10" or 12" sugi light type dime tip bar... bear in mind you'll need to have a 1/4" drive sprocket to run the 1/4" chain you have to use with a dime tip....</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Either that or a 10" or 12" Quarter tip - you're existing drive sprocket is prob 3/8 lo pro but double check.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also did some vids here

<p>Oh and yes - just select an 018 to see all the carving bar options - they are all universal mounts and will all fit on the MS150.</p>
-
<p>Does it apply to the 10 & 12 & 14 inch dime tips. </p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000;">Yes all the dime tips and Q tips will fit the MS150 - on the dime tips they do need that extra drive link..I need to work out how to show this with the selectors.</span></p>
<p>Is it a solid bar - dime tip that you are waiting for ? Do you have an idea of what they will cost and would I really notice a great deal of difference between 10/12 inch light type and solid ??</p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000;">The ones I am getting will be R7 (7mm tip), the dime tips I have are R10 (10mm) tip.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000;">The new ones I am getting will run the 1/4" .043" chain - the ones I have run the 1/4" .050" chain.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#FF0000;">If this is to be your only carving bar you need a standard dime set up... the new ones I am getting are only for detail work - they will not last at all doing regular carving.</span></p>
<p> If I decide to go with a light type should I select a different saw to be able to select the bar ? Sorry to muck about !!! But I'm desperate to get a dime tip on it </p>
<p>Thanks Ross</p>
-
<p>That's it Ross - I started the order around 2 months ago - a slow process - you can put the sugi light type dime tips on the MS150 - but the chain you need requires an additional drive link... select from the custom selector here <a href="http://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/custom-chain-loops/" rel="external nofollow">Custom chain loops</a> so if the bar reads 60 drive links you need to order 61...</p>
-
<p>It's possible - but only have laminated in 18" - still good bars... Now 20" I have the shiny light type pro bars - put your saw in here to get prices <a href="http://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/guide-bars/" rel="external nofollow">Guide bars</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you order put in arbtalk as voucher code for a free gift!</p>

<p>Not got the 16" bars yet Patrick - but may get them in - everyone seems to like to run 13",15" and 18" on those Huskys.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>15" Sugi is £54-00+vat for the light type and £50-00+vat for the pro solid.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chains - there's a choice of 8 or so!</p>
<p> </p>

<p>As long as you know what you are doing ref a sharp chain I am sure you will be fine with a 36" bar... you can order off the website <a href="http://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/guide-bars/" rel="external nofollow">Guide bars</a> just 'pretend' to have a Husky 395XP for the larger bar options... sugihara are my best bars... remember to put 'arbtalk' in as a voucher code, Rob</p>

<p>Hi Will - that set up is a good one to go for - maybe the granberg precision grinder to sharpen the chain nicely as well... Pricewise the mill will be £199-00+vat (minus 10% if you order before the 20th Oct - after 20th Oct there will be throw ins for arbtalk members). Chains - you can always get the prices off the website here if you need more info <a href="http://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/chainsaw-mills/" rel="external nofollow">Chainsaw mills</a></p>

<p>Hi Tim - we're waiting on a Granberg order which should have the ripping chain... they seem pretty busy recently and it's been hard to get details on when delivery will be... do you want a Stihl ripping chain instead? We could then get the order sent or give it the weekend first to see if the chain has come in?</p>
-
<p>Sorry just got back from the Bentley woodfair - didn't get a chance to look through any e-mails while away... Tim I have set your discount and Paul have replied to your PM!</p>
<p>Cheers, Rob</p>
-
<p>Yep - they will go right dandy on a 60" bar - I have a set of 56" rails currently on my 59" Stihl bar and 090 - works a treat!</p>
-
<p>I think you are fine putting any of the multi mount type carving bars on it. Does it have a rim and sprocket set up? If so just change the rim over to a 1/4" rim and if thinking of selling it put on one of my cheaper zebra carving bars. If it doesn't have a rim and sprocket then you need to get hold of a 1/4" drive sprocket and this model is not featuring in the oregon selector at the moment... or another option is a quarter tip bar... just leave the existing drive sprocket on there.

<p>Pleasure Andy...</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I don't have a catelogue at the moment - but I should have one really!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Will put it on my list to do as would be good to be able to hand one out at shows, cheers, Rob</p>
-
<p>They are 138 drive links .404 .063</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's a bit of a pain that bar - nose seems to get hot and chain tension seems to go from tight to slack but it will do the job.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Works best on the older slower saw, cheers, Rob</p>
-

<p>Discount set - don't hang around long as only have one of those bars and not getting more!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Easier for me if you order on line and I send - as I am not here most of the time...</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Cheers, Rob</p>

<p>Alright Mike - I'm out of the 24" and 36" Sugi bars for Husky... but I do have a Cannon 24" bar you can have for the same price as a Sugi bar. If you put your info into the selector <a href="http://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/guide-bars/" rel="external nofollow">Guide bars</a> you'll see the cannon 24" is now £74 not £98... and you get 10% off that (but sign up on the site then tell me you have done so), cheers, Rob</p>
