Picked up a loop of Husqvarna Xcut chain here at the werkzhouse, for the 290 boat anchor.
Price was rite.
Any of you smellers run any of it?
How well does it work for towing a Ford truck?

Onced you cut the Ford in half lengthwise,,,should be no problem girthhitchin 2 loops together to get some kinetic nrg stored up to yank half a ford back to the g’rudge !🤔👍🤷‍♂️

 

[greendohn]

I’ve got a loop but haven’t tried it not sure it’ll be as nice as running square.

never fooled with square.

it seems the 66 link chain I picked up is too short for the 290 wheel chock
gonna' maybe looky see if we don't stock a 67 link tomlly.

 

[JRepairsK70e]

Square is the only way to go for falling if you can use it.

7 years ago, I may not have been a member of SH then, but that does not matter, he was one of you.
RIP Phil

He was a quality individual...

Square is superior in every way...

But only for those willing to sharpen it...

Which is not without its challenges..

X cut works just fine.

I think I may have a problem..... I’m sitting and watching online livestock auctions and trying to pencil out if it is worth driving to Iowa, Colorado and Texas to buy pigs.......

It’s not so bad when you throw them on the grinder at the end of the day with lots of good light.

I learned the square bit on 9/16'', there was lot of it, nearly 13 feet on the old Homelites.
1/2'' was easy, .404 wasn't bad, the little stuff took some doing.
I don't see well enough to file square bit, have to round file.

No.. not too bad.
But it gets old..

For the race chains, I quit fucking with the grinder...

I did however, get a pair of reading glasses and went back to filing.... damn... what a difference!!!
Didn’t realize how shitty my near sight was getting..

I now keep a set of reading glasses on the shelf over the vise..

I'm guessing it'll run like hell, and fizzle out at the end of a tank of fuel.

Chains get dealt with at the grinder.

Always carry back up chains. No files.

 

[RandyMac]

The chain got a quick file every other fuel break, I did carry a couple extras just in case of hitting something or if the bark was particularly gritty, OG sometimes had shit in the bark.
OG Redwood on the flats often had flood silt.
