You mean there is no live feed on TV of the detainees in Nauru burning through tens of millions of dollars worth of buildings while failing their character tests?

Hey

Anybody use TCT chain? What are your thoughts on it, longevity,cost,sharpening,edge holding,cutting speed etc? Only learnt of it recently and will probably have no use for it with the amount i do at present and the fact i find sharpening things therapeutic but im still interested!
 
last weeks wind orphan, I was called to tree on roof but below was 2 babies with worried mum top of pix very nearby. The limb had the nest hollow and all had gone wrong by the time I got them home safe one had passed the surviving sweet ugly other is now in mums good care. We raised 3 parrots to release last year this little rainbow lorikeet given luck will be on his way in 4 - 5 weeks

DO NOT touch it!!! In theory it seems all dandy but the theory is where it stops. I bought two loops and quickly regretted it. The marketing says that it is a custom chassis with higher depth guages than normal (it runs a Carlton chassis) to accomodate the higher cutter as the Tungsten plate is welded straight over the cutter. It isn't. The depth guages are standard and that far out of whack that the chain vibrates so bad it will rattle your fillings out your teeth.
Fact is that if you hit anything hard it will sheer the entire piece of tungsten off wrecking the whole cutter - this can happen with any brand of Carbide but better off wrecking a $2.50 Stihl cutter than an $8 TCT cutter. Another thing is that you cannot buy individual right or left hand cutters for the TCT chain. If you damage one you have to buy a pair. Or like me if you damage $180 worth of left hand cutters you have to spend $360 on a whole new 28" chain and that's trade price too.

If you want to run Carbide chain buy either the Rapco or Stihl. I now use the Stihl. I still have a 20" .404" loop of the TCT running fine but the Stihl gear is 10 times better.

You don't have to take my word for it. I was cutting with Bennn*e when I took out every left hand TCT cutter on only it's 3rd cut. Even he shook his head at the design of it and he's a Stihl dealer.
 
So I think I have a problem, I always seem to find a reason to use my saws! Today was building a firewood shed, I put weatherboards on the sides and needed to cut the top boards on an angle. Instead of using a circular or even a jigsaw I rip out the stihl! My other half walks out and just shakes her head! So today I convinced myself I need a carving saw lol

Chainsaws are great for cutting stuff :msp_wink: you'll find more and more things you can cut with a chainsaw instead.


Eg. straw bales, rhino horn, etc. etc.

Next time I break into the zoo I'll definitely be using tungsten on those rhinos. 36RS went blunt too quick.
 
Let them try that in PNG and see how many of 'em are still standing by the end of the riot.

Its a bad situation, and it will get worse too.
They go on and on about the boats and 4 drowning in our waters or what ever, I often wonder how many are lost on the high seas and never heard of again long before they get here.
