Have you tried triming fir trees?

Hmm, I have one, good idea, will try it, but branches are sometime 5cm  thich, will it take them and won't damage to death?

It will break, just chuck it in the metal recycling and get a new one. Not sure why you would want to risk working with a chain that’s going to fail.

Yeah that's what I will do, just though to ask experts before.

Buy a new chain there not much money for that size saw!

While I agree on cost stil,  I am planning to stretch a bunch of them, that's why I am asking.

Dont know if it is right place to post, admins, please move it to right place if it isn;t

I looked on internet that birches are't trimmed and firs are timed by leaving long stems (10-30cm long)m, Looking for advice and criticism (already doing that),

Also have some shrub like Tilia, how should I take care of then?

Can you put streched 37cm on 40cm? or does it depend on maker? I am using original stihl ms261 and equipment it came with.

Even if I put it on longer chainsaw bar, will it break soon (after all density become lower doesn't)?
