I know. But there is real satisfaction when one can overcome the natural shortcomings of a model 70 and make it shoot better than it knew it could. Still curious what you will do with the barrel. That is a lot of work for a tomato stake. grin People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

I can file one up faster the I can remove and replace the chain There are lots of videos on this most are poor and really steer you wrong Bucks holly ray does the best. Forget the rest

Hint. Congratulations?!? Now if only obviously and to the chagrin of Window Lickers doing their best,a file must enter/exit a tooth as fibers would. Bumpkin Billy is the antithesis of same,totally devoid of the throat and wood entry,which is funnier than fhuqk. 'Course all of his schit is duller than fhuqking Church and his "saws" wouldn't pull a greasy string out of a cat's ass. Hint. .685" at 21" is a nice place to be. Hint. In fairness,it took me until the 3rd week of March to hit $80K this year. Hint. Tank by a left to the liver. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!...............

Dad got to where he couldn't start it, at about 75. No compression release, he refused to use a foot. Honestly, I don't think he could really handle it anymore. Starting was the excuse. No loggers were slightly interested. Blew my mind. It was in great shape, well maintained. No one needs a saw like that very much here anymore. It was a good deal for the occasional big tree,even if it was old. Parents who say they have good kids..Usually don't!

I have a better one in Alaska. The cheap HF one in TX. I expect one day one part of the plastic will break. In the meantime I keep around 20 chains on hand and while I've never kept count, I suspect I've worn out to the point of throwing away 10-15 so far. All with that cheap HF one. If I used more than that, might get a better one for TX. Especially if I keep having to sharpen all the inlaws chains when I'm in TX too. We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Some other tool to make it simple? Now that I am retired and back in the country I am using my chainsaw a lot more and need to start doing my own sharpening.. There were several suggested throughout the thread. Did you not read through it? If you take the time it takes, it takes less time. --Pat Parelli American by birth; Alaskan by choice. --ironbender
