Got my chains today. I will work on them tomorrow. Cut are we shipping them to you when we have them done or is there a date you want them shipped. Jim i just got 2 of them was going to do a round and square but would like for you to compete. I will send you one if you would be interested. I will just butcher up a good chain anyway trying to square file. But it is all for fun.
FEAR NO TREE. FEAR GOD.

I don't think I'll have time to do the 2nd one. Oh well one might be all I need to get embarrassed with

Send anytime you like when finished.

Jim I was going to do a square PS and round PS3. I also have a stock PS to compare all too and a PS3 stock was going to be run too.   
If you want one of the PS3 to square up for yourself let me know and I will just keep a PS for stock chain.

Well I am done with my square filed chain.   I ground it first and compared it to a stock chain and was dissappointed with the results, so I have hand filed it now.   Need to clean it up and do one more test cut.
Do you attribute your as ground disappointment due to angle difference created by the chain being a Pico or Low Profile 3/8 ths pitch chain rather than being your usual regular 3/8 ths chain?

My experience with this was that the angle underneath the horizontal part of the tooth was more blunt than I desired.


Yes I believe the angles can be made sharper with hand filing.   My hand filing is not to good either and could have been a waste of my time.   But this is a learning process and never really doing a race chain before it really is experimental for me.

I'll go along with what ever you guys want me to do as far as doing one on the grinder.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".
Be all that you can be . . .
