If you find some more 1/2" presets, please let me know.

Will do. I am going back to the shop today to look around. I closed my business in 1997 and did not even go around the shop for years other than once in a while to check on it. I still have places to look where old parts were kept so I will let you know. I am now there almost everyday since I retired in early 2012. Tom

I like this part of the description.

This is not a low-kickback chain and should be operated only by users with experience and specialized training for dealing with kickback.

I just wanted people who didn't know about these old chains. Homelite and others recommends that low-kickback chain be used on all saws unless you have experience and special training for dealing with kickback. I have operated chainsaws for over 50 years and never been hurt but always used safe practice. Don't want to brag to quick because the next time I may get hurt. I have witnessed some nasty cuts in my life. Tom

Tom, is the actual chain marked Sandvik or Disston?

 

[threeputt]

Sandvik is written on the roll. I see nothing on the chain itself but this is the original box roll it was shipped to us on in the late 60's or early 70's. Tom

Yes, at $8+ per foot, maybe I should start making 1/2 chain !

Sold finally. The three presets made the chain more valuable. Without them no chain could be made the right way. I was thinking the presets by themselves would be worth at least $50 for the three. Anyway it is gone and I am glad it found a good home. Tom
