Tecomec chain grinder
« on: December 01, 2017, 08:14:02 am »
Guy dad used to have mill his logs was selling out and moving.  Dad was buying some of his stuff.
Updated his grinder to a tecomec  8). When I first saw it I thought it was a oregon 511.   

Tecomec  made in Italy happen to make the grinders for oregon?

I was impressed with it. Seemed well built and like the way the manual vise etc worked.   Told him it was proably a $250 or better grinder new. Still looks like new too with not much use.

136 should have the forward/ reverse switch.  I like them VG grinder IMO.  Couldn't find one when I was in the hunt for one.  Bought a Foley 308 for $168 del w/manual no less.

After much consideration, I decided to not bother with putting the (forward - reverse) switch on my 511A . The grinder is good enough the way it came from Oregon. I've had it some 4 years. I got it used from our chainsaw friend in Columbus with a worn out vice. I put a new Tecomec vice assembly on it and it has worked perfect ever since. A couple times I have taken it on location to the job site and sharpened the chains as they became dull.
