where would you guys get a STIHL 3/8 .050 gauge, yellow semi chisel 70 DL chain? the local place place said $50 + to order
I just need a good (dirty wood) chain for the charity cut in sept

$22 at my local dealer. I'd ask him why he's so much higher. I'd give you a loop if you were closer

 

[67L36Driver]

I may have one from the echo... I'll have to check...
50 bucks is stupid high...

Yes!

I have a couple extra loops of 72dl but not 70.

 

[cobey]

thanks guys, I was shocked when the guy priced it, then he tried to sell me oregon beaver tail chain
the other place had only .063 gauge, and said they didnt stock .050

 

[cobey]

Matt, I know you would know what was up because you make chains :msp_biggrin:
if ya find an extra one it would be cool, id pay for it too, cant wait to go cut on the 21st!!
btw thanks for the help , you all are making me smarter....so i dont pay $50 for a $22 chain

 

[Freehand]

Rule of thumb for chains is around a dollar a bar inch. But hell, I remember when I could get a 72 dl full chisel full comp Oregon chain off the shelf for $7.50.:msp_scared:

Just drop Nixa Hardware on your way there. They have a display wall full of pre-packaged chain and rolls to custom make one too.

They've also got a very nice 090 for sale to quench your big displacement thirst:cool2:

no, I just thought the stihl would be better for older
and maybe dirty wood

Cobey I thought I was going to be able to help you out with the chain but mine are all 72 drivers sorry.Hay how did that front paw get?

 

[Mo. Jim]

Evening cookie,your running a little early this evening. You folks getting this 90 degree weather down there? I was chasing my coffee with ice water this afternoon. We are needing some rain bad up here.

 

[old cookie]

Mo Jim I did get around a little early tonight for some reason. Yes the 90s came back here today to sorry to say. I was really liking the 80s.We needed to dry out a bit , but a little rain wouldn't hurt much now I don't think.

thanks anyway , the paw is getting better, it will have some limitations (middle finger bent down a little) but should work well

 

[Locust Cutter]

Well, at least that won't affect certain sign language...otstir:

 

[cobey]

for weeks my finger was stuck like that, I used bright colored bandages so people
didnt think that it was up for sighn language lol

 

[sawnami]

One of the guys at work had some oak cut into rounds in his father's back yard that he said I could have. The hitch was that they were about 24" diameter and he had a very steep hill to drag them up. The 750 went on a noodling spree:msp_wink: He's got a big pile of oak noodle mulch now and I've got some firewood.

 

[Hedgerow]

Mornin fellas...
It's like 49 here this morning...
I'm soaking up the coolness...
