Hello I'm back in haha, I had to go to bed early last night cause I felt like dog s*** and you don't wanna hang out with me cause I suck, all I do is work just ask my girlfriend haha and I got obviously that carving, a set of files for hand sharpening chain, a pair of chaps, and a carhartt rain resistant hoodie which is sweet, oh and boomer got me a Dewalt 20 volt light that takes the same batteries my drill does

Oh and I read through that 084 post, needless to say "buyer" is nothing short of a bastard. I've dealt with him before. Everything said is true

Sweet! The same could probably be said about me because I don't do much else besides work and sleep lol I only suggested it because I would already be taking a couple days off for Gatlinburg so what's a couple days more.

Im not sure the difference, a super may be a replaceable tip

The super bars are also more wide making them better for plunge cutting and they wear better I think. Heres a picture of an E on top of a E super for comparison.

True, but I'm no professional user by far. I'm just trying to get a good bar that will last a while. After reading some of the other posts, I think the normal bar is more than adequate for my intended use. This saw that it is going to go on (ms361) is more of a learning experience rather than for actual work.

What gauge for the bar are you going to get? I was just checking out baileysonline and for 3 dollars more you can go from an E bar to a Sugihara lightweight bar.

I have no idea. Was going to see what the dealer recommends when I go to pick up parts. Any suggestions? The Sugihara bar is very tempting, but i'm trying to keep the project on the lower cost side and because I'm impatient, I will probably get the regular stihl bar.

Speaking of Bars, what kind of bar and chain should I put on the 056s

 

[astnmacgto]

Ooooooh, sugihara lightweight........... I've been wanting one of those but they don't make em in a D176

I was just looking at that bar, it's pretty sexy, and pricy haha, but not much more than what I would pay for a Stihl bar.

Supposedly all around better

What length I was thinking 28"-32"?

 

[astnmacgto]

Any length up to 32 inch would be fine its up to you

10-4

 

[Kensie1988]

After some thought I believe I will go with a Sugi Hara 32" with full comp Oregon chain. My 925 has a 28" so when it is up an running I will have that spectrum covered and the 056 will just be for the big wood.

 

[Boomer 87]

Ha ha he said big wood

 

[astnmacgto]

That's grosssss
