It was a busy day to say the least. Well, it kept me occupied for a few hours anyway. The 365 got its first real workout since getting it back. I only had a couple of brief chances to use it before today. For the majority of its life it will wear a 20" bar, so I figured the 8-pin rim is perfect for it. I'll eventually have a .404 setup for it this summer, I'm hoping that works as well as I think it will. Eric did a hell of a job with this saw. So here are a few pics and a couple movies from my unorganized tree debacle.
What's easier than dropping it next to the woodpile???
Surveying the area
Forgot the 365 was on the ground, covered it when using the 136 for a few cookies
Not too shabby for a 91vxl chain that I sharpened with a rush job on the grinder
This certainly isn't the norm for shavings, but I was impressed with some of the shavings. I've been unhappy with the results of a new borizon sharpening wheel that I recently bought, but I guess this shows it's not too bad.... And I haven't even touched the rakers yet. I think this chain has been filed a couple of times and touched up on the grinder once. Very gently.
REALLY rough cutting with the 136. It cut surprisingly fast (or so I thought anyway) but was definitely very chattery.
