no offence, but i'd love to see the look on you guys face the first time ya bury that long bar on a 77cc saw in some white oak or hickory. ya prolly swear some one swapped out yer chain or sumthin. :hmm3grin2orange: :potstir:

Here's 2 videos we took cutting at 3300 ft with a stock 576 autotune and a stock late model 046. It was in oak that had been laying there 2 years. It was 27" across and the saws had a 32" with semi skip stihl chain off the roll. Square is like jumping up a saw size or getting port work done. If any of you want to try it send a loop to me and I'll grind it and send it back. Unless you're bucking muddy wood all day I think you'll be impressed with square.

that red oak right? that's very good of you, and i'm sure ya grind a chain very well, but I can't mail a chain off every time it needs sharpened. I might try sqare again tho.

Going back to bama on sunday evening. Staying at least one week maybe 2. Taking some tools and a saw and my gear. Chipping is only going to be for 6 to 8 hours a day. So what do I do with the rest of the time... Gonna try to find something ..might as well right?

I'm looking up replacement parts for the 288. I'll be checking in a little more tonight and tomorrow.:cheers:
 
I ground roberte and twochains a chain and they seemed to like it. I'm probably a lot closer to you guys than the west coast where most have grinders.

Seemed to like it...
That f:censored: chain was great. I hated to have to file it afterwards. The 660 ran good on it.
Good job mike :msp_wink:
