You fool, those specs won't work on the MS361, they're for the MS441! Lucky you didn't kill yourself. Damn amateurs...
Oh shi......

I still round file them....one or two swipes and she is off and cutting like new again.....whole chain takes about 2 minutes
N9, don't worry about the monkeys.
they are all busy picking lice off each other, and don't understand when someone is trying to rationalize and explain physical phenomena. Newton, Einstein, Bernoulli et al all had similar issues.
I'm sure I'm not alone in having read your posts, and wanted to ponder upon them, and add them to our paradigm of how things work.
You sure you're on the right forum? We're talkin' about farkin' saw chain... not quantum physics... (hell I prolly even spelled quantum wrong)
Whatever mang...

Pushing on the bar hard, the chain doesn't seem to be porpoising when I cut logs and branches and stuff, hard flat on the rails seems to me, teeth all cutting dead flat as in a picture, you wouldn't need a movie, porpoising is just a fancy word for wavy undulations, it's all just loose chains caused by too long bars :chatter:
Maybe we should brainstorm the construction of a saw with a retractable bar so you just stick out what you need commensurate with the size of wood at hand. That would prevent all that excess chain from flapping around in the breeze. You would be able to keep the chain pressed tight between wood and bar. Of course in the process you would necessitate the perfect length regulation of the cutters or have to resort to the method recommended by the original poster of a complicated process of tailor making the raker length of the preceeding teeth to control the cut of the following tooth!
Yup, I am going to get right on it!
Great pdf!
Thanks.
Add my thanks to the list.
Print this .PDF and take the time to read it carefully and thoroughly.

It has taught me a lot more than anything else in this message thread.
