Looked at the RS as I switched in the LG. Seen some  right side cutters I didnt  like at all. Had the wrong lean angle.  Going to leave it though and untested.
Remember what I had told you about Chris aka skippy on your last one.

started and finished the 33LG in about 15mins and tried something totaly different in square.  Angles are  ::) :P  Went against everything you see folks show and read about. Just hope it out cuts the stock 33LG.

File was so worn it was missing edge in places.   :D

Pretty sure that was the order.

Hope to have it done within 2 weeks for sure.  I am spying a day the week after. IF I can make time for it.

Looking at a nice warmer day that I can spend most of the day without rain.   

Takes me awhile setting up. Marking each cant. Video taping each chain. Then changing out each chain and do it again.  Also making sure to keep a list while grabbing the chains of who, type, how, etc before installing chains. Then keeping them all organized so I keep the right chains with the right owners to send back later.
Then uploading all those videos etc.

Try and have your chains sent in by April 16.   

Lot of folks that were in have gone MIA due to work.   Thanks for the heads up in PM's.

Next one will be like Rd#1 was timeline wise.

Also I was hoping 325 050 66DL myself.
Been in 3/8 ones  already in different classes of builds.  But 3/8 can be done again.

My reason and thinking most of us have not done up 325. I havent done one but have had one good one before given to me.  Friend did it  and it was 50% faster square using stihl RS chain to make RSL, compared to a RM3 chain that was on a 290.
Randy said on a 261 stock, RS 325 to RSL square was 38% faster for him.


I have in saw chain inventory;
  .325 - .050 chain
       20'     20AP Oregon
       20'     DI Homelite
       12'     33LG Oregon
   .325 - .063 chain
       19'     19 Oregon
