Moreover, the burnt cutters are your first clue. When the file cuts in the right direction there is a distinct sound and feel - not the scraping heard in this video.
I’m glad I could finally see a regular video about a rainbow that isn’t woke. God made the rainbow as a sign that he would never flood the earth again and that’s what it is. Not some sign to show people you’re gay. Thank you for the wholesome video and listening to me rant lol
I'm not sayin' one way or the other but @:35 when sharpening I straddle the engine, set the brake and always file both cutters toward the tip of the bar. Just sayin'. I really like my log vice, too. @2:56 make a small chunk-a iron or steel sleeve and hook it through your belt in a handy spot -- a good place to temporarily hang your 16" gauge. Could also slip a strong (a "Neo" ) magnet into your pocket as well. "tearing " of wood piece isn't any sort of defect, just a factor of angled grain in the log or a bigger branch. So, can you lift the 6 way straight up off the stationary stud, turn it so the old top is now down and drop it back in place? And wait a minute - what are those 2 holes in that vertical mounting stud for? Maybe a set of pins (or bolts) to stop the splitting part from rising up too far?? A couple of short #8 hard bolts with nuts might stop the raising up problem dead in it's tracks. Northern Idaho and Alaska here -- we heat with wood up North here. Joe S
Good advice - I appreciate it. I’ll look at a pin to hold the 6 way down, it has a small lip on the top that won’t allow it to be put on upside down (well not easily).
Thank You.....This has been driving me nuts and yours is the first video that I found that addressed the issue. I have a bed cover but luckily left the cover unlocked to where I could still get in the bed. Gonna try this when I get home!
At first glance I was waiting for you to release the tailgate to dump,, Now I see that it's much easier to pick them out of the bed instead of bending over a thousand times to stack it... Am I even Remotely close?
Thanks for this video man. I called 5 dealers none of them had the answer except to bring it in for diagnostic a $180 charge. I needed to hook up to my gooseneck and was heated on the call. Thanks
a round file is the crapiest tool to use, it makes the chain dull faster. flat file with agressive geometry is better. diamond wheel for razor sharp. i have a ms170 with a 20" blade, don't need more power.
