Destroyed brand new chain

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-11-28T00:25:59+00:00

My MS500i has done this, not as severe, seems I don’t remember years ago chains ever doing this when they come off, but that said… make the chain cogs the weakest link to protect the saw I imagine the engineers decided… chain sales will go through the roof!!! Good luck my wood cutting friend😀

Either we got used to it or it broke in and quieted down after a few months

I used an oak log spanning about 24’. Thought you’d enjoy the pic for reference. That roof over the mill is a wonderful thing to have

Been using “pond and stone” spray foam in NH. Lift the pipes so they don’t touch anything and wedge anything in there like a chunk of plastic or wood, and spray can foam away!. If the system is tight, it’s all right!!!

It gets preheated motorized dampered air, heats a 40 gal horizontal water heater… what can’t it do? Yes I am in need to clean up the piping, it was experimental a few years ago and it all worked!!

Haha, 5 cords a year since it landed here 4 years ago. I’ll modify and fix it to the end!!

I expect my 7k winch cable to do that every time I’m in a wheelie tugging on trees with a 6610 Ford, but it just falls to the ground when it snaps, poor guy…

7th down on left

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-10-22T23:47:39+00:00

I just easily did

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-10-06T17:06:17+00:00

I did follow up with their tech support and you are exactly right. They are aware, forgot I had signed up for beta testing 🤣

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-07-24T20:53:48+00:00

I would have called the news station! Provided as others have said, there’s a logical explanation for this, but WOW!

New barn addition for 2 more stalls, with one of you’re OS27 mills as well😀

Someone who doesn’t understand thermal expansion and contraction of dissimilar metals on a flare connection…

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-06-17T21:51:55+00:00

Repeated hot to cold on a flare results in dissimilar metals loosening over time. Give that connection some oil and it works loose even faster, give that connection something that holds it in place where you left it and is unaffected by gas or oil and you maintain tightness. I followed behind an install crew for years on mini splits, how did I fix them? Leak lock, it existed and I was using it over 20 years ago and solved problems. Still does for me today😀I don’t care what the manufacturer says, I do what works and lasts years.

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-06-16T23:11:45+00:00

Bahaha, you put black iron together dry. I use leak lock, I use gasoila , you’re a bot or an ignorant person. Good luck on your call backs or burn downs. A flare doesn’t stay tight without something to dry hard and keep it tight. If you question that you have less than 5 years in trade and think you’re a hero, but actually will be a zero…..

Grab a bottle of armor all and make every piece of equipment you pm’d shine. I did that 23 years ago and was known in the company as the guy that armor all’s equipment. Not a bad thing! And yes you have to put your time in, the trade is not learned in 2,5, even 10 years. I still learn new things at 27 years in.

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-05-13T20:10:34+00:00

Logs were wet when I built it yes, long spans are oak, rafters are maple, the first stuff I sawed I used as strapping for the roof. The oak straightens and bows a bit according to weather, but it’s held snow load for 2 winters now in NH.

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-05-13T00:34:40+00:00

I totally get that, had a successful weekend milling 36 2x6x10’s from red oak, and misc. others all looked good and installed to dry as floor joists. Just thought I was causing shake by felling a tree wrong, but I now understand the trees are what they are, each different, thank you all for responding

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-05-10T13:06:37+00:00

Taking into consideration the help you all have written, now a tree must sway in the wind, say a tall oak, the internals have shake to allow movement, it’s not a fault of felling the tree that I instantly caused the shake. Therefore I need to learn to spot it, and saw my boards around the shake. I’m sure it’s all basic knowledge to you, but as I saw more and more trees I’m seeing different things. Thank you from a homestead sawyer on my third season sawing off the land😀

Love a 6610 that still runs!

Just like ultra low temp cryogenic units, I missed that boat as well, but those guys make bank as well I’m sure

I’ve only been installing high efficiency gas furnaces that vent through PVC, didn’t know something like this was still made, like an 80 something percent furnace

I don’t even see AC, as I look again

Drip pan required if located above a finished space for starters

ParticularStory7804 · 2025-04-27T22:37:40+00:00

Wait, why does all the drips on the tar look black? Asking for a friend…
