Chainsaw Repair

Ethan posted it up today in CRG FB. Chain Build Off.   Think they are looking at March April timeline.

Ship chains to Ethan again.

Chain build-off, all are welcome!
I’m hosting another chain build-off, little different this year. Only rule is the keep chassis work to a safe level, I don’t want chains breaking!
Chains this year will be 72DL 3/8 .050 to be ran on a muffler modded and carb swapped Solo 681 with an 7 pin and a 394 ported by Mathew Olsen with a 8 pin. I’ll attach videos of saws below. Saws will run in a 16”x16” cant (thinking pine). Dave Smith is running the saws to keep things fair and consistent. Footage will go on YouTube. I am only releasing names of the top 25% of entries as I don’t want bench racers talking **** to those who perform poorly. This is for fun and all are welcome.
I will give a vallorbe double bevel to the winner, in the past guys sent money to sweeten the pot, that is allowed again. Chains can be shipping back afterwards if you cover the cost of shipping. Date is currently set for late March, that is subject to change a little for whatever reason (shipping, end of the world, etc.) PFA

Dave will be the consistent operator? 😁

Ethan says. March 26th is the big day, I’d like to have the chains a couple days early to get everything labeled!

Also  have tracked down some free cants, they’re poplar and probably fairly dry at this point, adjust accordingly folks! Personally I wouldn’t change much.

(Bet I know where those cants came from, bet SF)
 

I would have guessed your cants being local to him.  Forgot all about them being cottonwood.

Maybe Dave had left over cants from the MI gtg.  Pretty sure those were poplar.
