That bar will take lots of chain. Easy to get the bar in the dirt and rocks
PS I have rolls of factory square 404 chain

 

[Hedgerow]

Neighbor needed a long bar to mill a big Burr oak...

Is that your saw, your bar, or both, or neither? Just sharpening the chain?

Nope.. I built that 088 for Danny "neighbor kid", from a box o' parts he got. Then he came over wanting a 72" bar. I tried to talk him out of it, but didn't work, so Mike Lee hooked me up with Adam in CA to purchase that monster bar and chain...
It was a big event getting it installed last night...
You couldn't have slapped the smile off his face..

A 48" is hard to mount up. I can imagine the 72".
