Not hijackin', but they said they could get chain cheaper if they bought 1000 pre made chains than buying roll chain and spinning them themselves. :confused:


I don't doubt that. The rolls are 100 ft, that makes 60 loops of 20" chain, if they bought 1000 loops I'd say they would hit some massive discount. They also don't have to invest in the tools, or pay the tech to spin a loop... BUT they loose business like this non-standard Stihl dl count. They cannot fix a chain w/ a broken cutter or two... other "full service" stuff they can't offer as well.

Running high pin rims for racing is easier if you add a link per pin increase 73 dl for a 3/8th 20" instead of the 72 dl normal to run an 8 pin rim. I haven't had trouble w/ stock lengths on 8 pin, no way I could fit a 9 though as the bar is nearly against the rim w/ the 8 pin.

I know a lot of people who are going to be busy starting at 4 30 am.Yall be careful getting to the gtg, .Its gonna be a super good time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's up guys. Well I'm rested up. Gonna sit here and drink a couple cups of coffee and watch the news then I'm north bound and down.
 
Do you need any tables? I have a couple of those white plastic 2.5' x 8' tables with the folding legs. I can throw them onboard if needed.

In terms of saws, Poulan 3400, 3700, 4000, Stihl 200T, 028 and 036, Husky 61, Johny 2083 and whatever else may fit.

Probably gather up more of the peanuts I brought to the Poulan GTG a couple of weeks ago.
 
Fixxin go load the wifeys jeep. Hopefully Ill be North bound and down within the hour.

You got your ears on rolltide? :laugh:
 
Totally up to you. We could use them but don't have to have them.

Hoping this rain gets outta here!!! :)
 
If anyone can help I'd be glad to pay for your troubles. My local Stihl dealers can't get me a 56dl loop of PS3 chain in time. If anyone has a dealer close by that stocks full chisel pico chain please pick me up a loop.

Done.

$21.95 I think (under $22 anyway) was the total damage once the super helpful politicians got their share of it...
