Tsumura light bars

[blsnelling]

I confirmed with the Simonizer that there are no .050 options. I can get .058 in Husky mount and .063 in Stihl mount. If I go this route, I'll do it right and just go with a Stihl mount. I'm jusy not sure I want to drop that kind of coin on a bar:msp_scared: I understand how good they are, but I'll not wear out any of the options I'm considering.

It's like owning Snap-on tools. You can get the same job done with Craftsman tools but you just don't feel as damn sexy doing it lol. A Ferrari and a Gremlin will both get you to the grocery store and back lol.

sugi hara are available in .050. :msp_biggrin:

but yes the tsumura lights i own are in .058 for husky and .063 for stihl.

so i have 3/8's in all gauges hahaha.

As I was hoping, one of you guys decided to pass along one of your almost new bars at a nice discount over a new one. My 390XP will be wearing a 32" .063 Tsumara.

 

[mdavlee]

I bet the 390 will look real nice with one on it.

I would always prefere an .058, as that is much easier to get chain for, around here. :msp_wink:

I'll be in for more David, just got to raise the funds this summer.

I wish they had different sizes for the stihl mounts like a 28" .063".

Those Tsumura 28 Stihl Light are being made right now as well as 16, 20, 24, and I have instock the 23 30 32 36 in Stihl Light 063.

Plus many Husky sizes in the works and in stock. In both Husky mounts.

Dave.

Nice a 28" is what I like to run. I hate to buy one and then grind the slot and have it opened up to .063".

 

[redfin]

All of my chain is .050". I have pinched a .058" bar down before.

How did you do this? Is there a specific tool for this with rollers like an english wheel?

A steel surface (anvil), a .050" used sawzall blade and a hammer. . . Or buy a bar rail tool from Bailey's. ;-)

 

[redfin]

Right on. Thanks.

I doubt it is a really satisfactory solution, as you can't close the rails all the way down.

Oh sure you can, with that process. . . It's the same thing a barshop machine does.

I followed metals advice and it worked beautifully. I was given a couple slightly worn bars the gentleman didn't want to mess with. They cut great again.
