The Tuul Crib 7,339 #1 Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) I just got my new chain on Friday from a place called. Baileys and put it on my husky to cut these bowl blanks.This is a special chain to rip lengthwise with the grain which has a 10° pitch on the chain links I believe it's a 72 link. It did not hesitate whatsoever to cut end grain on this white oak. I have more to cut and make another video . Ill cut a few and then turn E423E1DF-4BE1-42B2-8879-DEAC548DC6F6.MOV Edited September 1, 2019 by The Tool Crib 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roadapples 6,983 #5 Posted September 1, 2019 Bought a pole saw from Baileys. They got the good stuff. Even have bigger heads and rebuild kits for chain saws... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tuul Crib 7,339 #6 Posted September 2, 2019 OK so the shoes are not OSHA approved but they sure feel good on the feet and easy to put on. I'll try and work on that ! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bc.gold 3,406 #13 Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) I don't have a picture of this machine that a fellow in a wheel chair had custom made to enable him to put a flat surface on large slabs to be used as tables. The slab to be surfaced was placed under an X, Y, Z cable operated mechanism that he could hand crank moving the router across the length and width of the surface. Some of the slabs he was surfacing were huge. Edited September 2, 2019 by bcgold Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was through the inverters observations of hitchhiking seeds that Velcro was invented. nvention of VELCRO® Brand Hook and Loop Who invented VELCRO® brand tape? The VELCRO® brand of hook and loop was invented by a man named George de Mestral in the 1940's while hunting in the Jura mountains in Switzerland. Mr. de Mestral, a Swiss engineer, realized that the tiny hooks of the cockle-burs were stuck on his pants and in his dog's fur and wondered how they attached themselves. Under the scrutiny of the microscope, he observed the hooks engaging the loops in the fabric of his pants. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
