Thank you very much for advice.

Thanks mate

Thanks. So I am fine then

All speed without any load. tried husky 135 with load and it is 9000.

I have test few of my new saws today and non of them apart from Makita came as per factory specification. I am particularly concern about my new husky 395 as this will be used for milling. here are pictures for maximum RPM. New husky 395 max RPM 12000 instead of recommended 9600. idel is also high at 3000 instead of 2500. new husky 135 maximum RPM 11800 instead of recommended 9000. Makita DCS 5121 maximum 13000 which is fine as per factory specifications.

Is it worth milling?

Thanks. Will go a head with milling over the next two weeks or so and will post some pictures.

I made a mistake, the first pictures is for another tree that I thought it was Oak last year and turned to be an Ash tree so please ignore the first picture above. I was looking at the old picture and it was posted by mistake.
-
Thanks. I have spent several hours clearing bramble to expose the tree and was so exited about finding a large Oak tree to mill. now need to tell the wife I was wrong.
-
How you differentiate between ash and oak bark in such old tree. Younger ash is easy to spot but older some looks like oak for my eyes.

More pictures

Found this tree in our wood under brambles. hope it is Oak but look like ash to me. it has been dawn for a while so no leave or buds. Plan to mill it.

Thank you very much, odd links number make since. My other two milling chains are 80 link for Stihl 075 and 64 link for Makita so both got even numbers. You live and learn.
-
My Oregon ripping chain came with two consecutive teeth on the same side. Is this the way it should be? see pictures.
-
They are 4 feet long

Tried my new husky 395 and it did well. milled wild cherry tree. Not sure yet what I am going to use it for. milled the first log at 2.5 inches, it got a bone shape slab with nice grain. Second log milled at 2 inches thick. Tree came dawn 9 months ago. what would you use such boards for?
-
I have Mikita DCS 5121 and I ham very happy with it.
-
Do they sell Ripping chains ?

Thanks Mick

Thanks Sloth.

I personally think it is beech but a friend of mine how knows more about trees said it is Hornbeam. he said if it is a beech then bark should be smooth like the one to the right of the picture which is large beech tree with smoother bark.
