chains
It's our IRONBARK here thats hard, In my old firewood days, I would stumble upon wood the early timber cutters left behind..
ie they took 10 ft of it and left....so dry,so hard (in fact it is now purple not red any more),very nearly calls for tungston..
I wouldent dare comment on saw sharpining in this fourm(Mr Martin might be reading) But I seem to get by,I use 404. on 088
"super chisel"in green & softwoods and mico chisel in the dry...
soooooo easy to sharpen. AS well as 250 tons of fire wood per season, I used to cut posts for a fellow(200 per day av) Put a 12 '' bar on one of the 88s an oregon "ripping" chain straight out of the box ond hang on. Logs were round enough to get 8-12 posts 6'7 each. Now I find out about different chains- powerporting etc, do I want thing to go any faster??
Climbing saw chain again, straight out of the box Pretty rough here in the bush
More damm power lines..
Stay safe Derek Does that mean me or you?
