I'm about to get my order in for Baileys to take advantage of the free shipping. I'm looking for suggestions on small parts for the 660's and stuff that might "enhance my milling experience".

I'm asking here because it seems almost every time I've put in my $200+ order to get free shipping I've forgotten something, and a day or two after I put in my order someone here will say they just love having the whatsit. And the whatsit looks like it's just what I needed, only cost $5 but cost more in shipping.

Example, two times ago somebody mentioned spare rims. So I got them last time.

So any suggestions people?

I've a pretty good supply of oil, chain, screnches, FOP's

thanks
 
I usually have
clutch bearing for the drive sprocket.
A few extra starter pawls.
A spare air filter would be nice but not necessary .
Extra bar nuts.
I've had the chain tensioner go bad.
 
If you use your scrench to tighten the oil and gas caps it is not a bad idea to have a spare cap on hand. breaking one will end your day milling unless you have a spare. DAMHIKT

Methinks if you're having to go that tight, it's time for new seals or O-rings? I've never had to use anything more than finger-tight on my caps, though sometimes I do need a tool to loosen a cap.

I'm in exactly the same situation as the OP, putting together a Bailey's order. I think I got everything though...

Something I haven't seen mentioned yet is a spare bar nose sprocket. I've been stuck twice because of that - once because one seized up, and once because I folded one over when it stuck in a big Fir as it tipped over. A spare nose is $15 at Bailey's, but $28 here locally at my dealer!
