  1. If you don't use WOT when cutting are you not getting less lube to the moving parts ?
  2. Unless you use a Sugihara light weight pro bar then its all the chain and not the bar rail
  3. This is what I think ( wrongly or rightly ) It is as Dave says ware . You get ware on the rivet joints which becomes clearance on the fit . The chain when being pulled on the underside of the bar " stretches " and when being pushed on the top of the bar " compresses " . Its because of this clearance in the joints that the drive links still sit in the sprocket . Add in some ware to the under side of the tie straps and the rails of the bar and you get a " farmers chain "
  4. When it says that a new chain is " pre stretched " do they mean " pre worn "
  5. I think you can get a small spline 3/8 .
  6. I am of the same opinion as you . It was a failed attempt at mirth ......

    Put your logs somewhere else . Somewhere with air flow but a roof to keep rain off .
  10. 1550 eh ? Should be seasoned by now .
  11. You are all missing something here . You will go to prison unless you do ALL your carving off the ground .
  12. If its going to be wrong,I prefer slightly on the slack side rather than a tad too tight .
  13. Kinda what I thought ( and said )
  14. I have noticed foxes barking at night earlier this month and now owls hooting . All calling for mates . And this morning was much lighter of late allowing me to see and hear the wall to wall sound of the jackaws as they come off roost and temporarily darken the encroaching dawn ! Spring is lurking Silky !
  15. What no body realizes is there is a dog crouched down just out of shot keeping them there .
  16. Once you have set the A/T the first time it will continually be adjusting itself to compensate for ambient conditions type of fuel what make of boots you ware etc etc .
  17. When I said did it over rev I didn't mean were you using it flat out ( you are supposed to cut WOT anyway ) What I meant was did it start to rev higher than it should when WOT thus indicating an air leak .
  18. Yes . Get the correct size screw driver . Remove the one screw holding it in place . Slide it out of its location . Put the screw driver away nice and tidy .
