How bout chain saw sharpening tricks?

Anybody ever hear of a carbide tipped chain?

Taking down (fileing) the back limiter tooth?
Not to much! .015-.-025? lower than top of tooth?


Whats the best way to dull a chain?
Hit the ground,? Keep a nice 5/32 fine cut rat tail file with you for
touchup
saw trunks with little dirt & stones?
Hit a nail or fence wire burried in the tree from 30yrs ago?

I'm thinking to bring my cordless dremel with a some small grinding
stones & a piece of carborandum (de glaze grinding stone)
Whats quicker? change chain or touch up?
Some saws are a bitch to change the chain. I hate when they get
tangled!

How to keep those vapor locked McCullough's going?
Dont shut'em off- they must boil the fuel in the hose whilst sitting
after use - let'em cool & start right up- Grrrrrr

Anyone ever see a 2 man chain saw?

In Michigan, I had eight trees taken out at once for $200 ea. I
thought it was reasonable. Then I asked about the 110' tall
cottonwood 3'+ dia. 50' from the house. The quote was $3700. It was
still there when we sold the place, but that thing kept me up nights.
Too many of those monsters went down from time to time in the woods
out back. Now, I don't have a tree taller than the house any where
near. Hallelujah, at least until summer.

Don't own it yet. Very likely will soon. I think price of housing may start
to recover in a year and I'll buy then. I do know the place will be in 'cane
country - no first floor enclosures. Can't afford the houses there unless I
win the lottery. So, it will be your basic two bedroom unit on second floor.
As a plus, they are concrete structures. I should be able to fill a room
with my toys.

I don't remember if the cheap model from China had anti-backlash, or not. I
had experience working with small mechanical assemblies, so the challenge
didn't seem impossible, but since I hadn't taken a dial caliper apart
before, I didn't know what I was doing.

Take an old dial indicator apart, and if that goes well, try fixing the
caliper.
If it's an expensive caliper, maybe send it out for repair.

Long Island Indicator Repair has been recommended here in RCM in the past,
for repair parts.. their repair flat rate for a 6" is $65, up to $125 for a
12" model.

Or a flow control valve (parallel needle and check) if you only need
damping when lowering.

And you may only want damping at the end, just before it closes. If you hook
the damper directly to the gate it will slow down the gate for its entire
motion, which will be frustrating. Or is that what you want, to be able
to just drop it and go? Perhaps mount the damper so that the gate contacts it
just before the end, and then it will damp the last foot or so of travel.

Let me add a little warning to that otherwise good idea. HSS stores up
a LOT of energy when it bends, and if it breaks it throws very sharp
fragments at high speed. I found that out by not cutting a deep enough
groove all the way around before breaking a short piece off with a
hammer.

My answer to these, after I get them out is to tap the holes and
reinstall the plate with button head screws.

Well, the old table lasted 43 years. If the new table lasts 43 more
years, I will be replacing it at the age of 81, if Clausing still has
it that is. At that age I will have plenty of time to re-remove the
"screws". I probably will forget all about how to remove them, by
then.

Ran into these same or similar type screws on an ignition rebuild (Kasasaki
Super Sherpa motorcycle) this past year. Seems they use fasteners that
screw in and when thight, the head breaks off so that you can't get them
out. The only problem is I needed to get them out, eh?

Drilled them, but had to disassemble a whole lot of stuff to make room for a
small hand drill to get in there.

1. I leveled it with a Starrett 98 level. Not completely perfectly,
but a good start.

2. Replaced speed and feed table.

3. Installed a VFD. I do not like the way I mounted it, I will have to
redo it. Maybe I can get a monitor arm if any are thrown away at my
work.

I still have to wire it with the lathe's forward/reverse switch, but I
ran out of time last night.

Yup..just like 3rd grade. You have to make up lies just to talk about

In short, vaccines do not cause autism. So, get your shots. And, more
to the point, make sure your kids get their shots.

Heh, I guess yer Wife don't work in a hospital..... hospital workers avoid
this stuff like the plague.

Good, honest Docs are caught between a rock and hard place -- how do you
tell yer patients that yer profession is fullashit (and thimerosal), and
still be able to make a living?

And I'm not even taking sides on the vaccine issue, really, altho I wouldn't
take them myself. In principle, a valid concept, in practice, very sloppy
chemistry.

The bigger point is, the world population is but a cageful of guinea pigs
for Big Med and Big Pharm... need I cite countless example after example
after example? Or the invention of disease just to sell drugs. Restless
Leg Syndrome, inyone?

So, need you take more than one guess at WHY Lancet printed a retraction?
Proly someone got fired for printing the original article to begin with.

Trouble is, it seems to be their only response. My wife likes a
certain brand of flavored coffee creamer; a while ago they changed the
bottle to a stupid shape that fits poorly in the fridge, with a cap
that is less than functional. Somebody's idea of an "artistic"
approach, no doubt. She complained that the packaging was making the
product tough to use, and she got a coupon for - guess what. Still a
PITA, regardless of price. But it beats having to think through to
arrive at a solution.

Packaging can be annoying. I'm currently ranting about Costco's "cube"
one-gallon milk bottle, which apparently saves shipping cost but which
dribbles like crazy. For a month or so they put an extra lip on the inside
of the spout, which stopped the dribble. But then they dropped it again. So
I complained. They said they were "sorry." If my wife had handled it, they
would have sent her a cow. <g>
