064, 066, 070, 088 or 090 That would b my tinkin! Or someone with a bigger saw you could hire, perhaps wiyh bloke may be cheaper than a new saw?
-
I think the newer model does not need the bar attachment. Though bout gettin one a while back. Got lots of windblown chestnut to deal wih, the thought of a tirfor makes my arm hurt! But so does tbe cost to the wallett!!! Decisionz!
-
A misconception, especially if you have a nut allergey
-
070. can you get those bearings over here? (non plastic)
-
nice!! looks like those logs will fall apart if you where to cut a 3.5" slice off?
-
thats good to know, as both my 090 and 070 have this configuration. my father managed to fix teh starter problem i had by making a shim insert for where it had stripped in the housing, so we all good for the time being. whilst on this 070 thread, you don't have a conversion kit from spur to rim available, if not i will try and get one but would be interested in one of the bearings that came with the 090 ones if you have any? thx s

my chair, which i haven't posted a picture of, is made from bone oak with a Yew seat and back. i used 3" carpenters mates screws then made plugs and glued them in! -
Ive loads of English cherry boards, perhaps i need to be making a table with them rather them stacked in the barn! gr8 looking table too! simon

one of these? Startertopf mit Ring für Stihl 070 090 090G Contra | eBay

as its new, that may be why because its over sharp. i had that same effect when i started with a new chain and wasn't applying a steady constant force. i would try on wood that's of not much importance and get a feel for what is needed. i am not far away, if you need any help or have any timber that's a tad big!!
-
does look a tad rough indeed! agree with Alex on the chain front bit, also wondering if the chain is new and seen little action and therefore too aggressive? also, i may of missed somewhere but is this a milling chain or standard cross cut? i have found that the older the chain i seem to get a better finish and on a 42" Oak ive just done the boards are very smooth indeed with a chain that has seem some action on the 090

I ve just been using the 090 last few days millingva large oak that blew down in our garden, a few pix to follow, but here is my saw in action last year.

**** happenz

How can that be deduced from the op's post
-
love my 056 super, tad heavy mind but with a 36" bar aboard, she cuts real sweeet!
-
Ive just moved that yew to a new drier location. I tell ya what though the colouration is stunning!!!!
-
I know, just pullin ur leg:biggrin:
-
ummm, would pay to watch someone milling that with an 026
-
And from personal experience with 2" ×12ft boards they are tad heavy and takes 3 good men to lift and move! And take 1 tank of fuel, oil and 10mins percut. Good luck and i hope or presume you have a stihl 070 or 090!!!!
-
My 064 is my best saw for power weight ratio and a gr8 climbing saw with the 36" bar on board. Id say keep it.
-
Poser Take it that aint stock then
-
Phfff. All this talk of porting and better performance and a great noise, i would suggest gettin one of these instead This was the saws first day out aftet rebuild.
-
when did Dave sell this? thought he still had it, but expect he is making use of the 130 more!
-
Shake free chestnut. Does that even exist!!!!
