Here is the best filing guide that I have ever used: Bailey's - Husqvarna Combination Swedish Roller Guide for 3/8" Pitch Chainsaw Chain

You need the right one for whatever size chain you are filing. This little tool isn't for folks that don't know how to hand file, but it is great for speeding up the process if you routinely work without it.

It swiftly moves from tooth to tooth, and it removes the need to worry about how deep to hold the file. It sets the proper undercut without any extra work. You can file at any angle, so don't count on any help on that problem.

That is the one I have.

It works great!!!

It goes slow. Just in from the shop. Yet another project stalled for lack of parts. I should give up on the old stuff. How goes it for you and yours??

Can't complain,the world is treating me better than I'm treating it. Finished splitting a short load of hackberry about dark,still have three big loads to do. Missed your ugly mug and Kims pretty face at the gtg. I did get a good share of your bacon though.:)
 
I like bacon bikinis.




My wife has been exercising, By next year she can trade in her rope bikini for a string.

As large of a problem I have in posting pics, I have an even larger problem in taking pics.

I see things that I am not able to take pics of....

For example, a tattered off the shoulder breeze catcher, carrying a mint 660.

hmmmmmm

Dan I think you have been traumatized by the whole event.

Absolutely.

I can't sleep. I keep wanting to send texts..... I plan to go 'check the job' at all hours....
I want to cut my rate and work slower.... I plan to rake up for free...... Maybe landscape..... Awful.....


Absolutely Awful...... the awful part is reality.
 
Freehand, got an email from the person that wants the wood dried. Maybe Monday.

Got to build a Vacuu-ln. One more expense, and one more item to go into the 'museum'.

:)


Going to start with about a 16 footer, and the design I have is adaptable.

For those of you that haven't seen the museum, it's quite disgusting.
 
On the vacuu-ln, I have an idea.

Rather than maintain vac for a duration, say 4 hours, it might work better 'pulsating' it in say 15 minute intervals.

This would 'pump' the water out. In the scenario where one maintained vac, once it reached equilibrium, it would cease to work any better than atmospheric.

Just a theory.
 
Is this a vacuum cabinet? How many inches of vacuum are you planning to pull/maintain? I think it would help boil out the water the higher the ambient temperature was.
 
Here's a load Andy & I cut & hauled yesterday... Couple big logs Andy wants to try practicing his freehanding skills...:cool:

Wut vessel did you end up with Mr.Dan? Steve's right about the bar/temperature relationship……..would be interesting to experiment at 100 degrees, 150, 200, etc…….there's prolly a real sweet spot……..
