How Long Does a CHAINSAW CHAIN Last - When To REPLACE Chain

- How long does a chainsaw chain last? Chainsaw chain life or when to replace a chainsaw chain is determined by the amount of material available, your chainsaw operation, and your ability to properly sharpen a chainsaw chain. The most expensive chainsaw operation comes from wasting and throwing away viable and usable chain unknowingly. When to sharpen a chainsaw.....When it's dull or not performing as intended. A cheap vs expensive chainsaw chain can or will be determined by your chainsaw practices but the best chainsaw for cutting firewood or any wood is a sharp chainsaw chain and I give a couple of things to think about and 1 or 2 chainsaw sharpening tips. So the answer to when to replace a chainsaw chain is when there's no more life left in it. This is also a response video to some good ole army hazing that I received from and old buddy to prove weather or not my little very used up chain can still provide value in my effort to cut firewood here on my little country homestead. Will I eat Crow or not?

thank you, skip through the babble
Thank you!
Thanks. This video could have been a lot shorter (under 2 mins.).
Thank you
Found what I was looking for thanks. I have more meat on my chain than I thought.
Right on! I didn't know what the markings were for until I was over 30 yrs. old either. Thanks.
Nice weather for physical activity, i do miss that here in the Caribbean now.
Hold up! I'm turning in my stress card. I need to take a time out.😂😂👍
Ya know...I never thought to ask if you were in the military at once. If you were then you know exactly what I'm talking about. True story. ;)
Great video thanks
Brother, don't ever bring up those Stress Cards again! LOL That was one of the few things that I refuse to admit was done in our great military machine. Good info on the chainsaw.
LoL....Yeah I know Rob.....What a joke and a disgrace that was when those young men and women were sent to us from Basic. "Excuse me Mr. communist before you continue to fight and fire upon me....I need to take a timeout moment to calm down and get my composure together." LoL
Exactly my thoughts! Folks ask me if my OSUT was hard in the '80's and I always tell them NO! It was fun. Nothing compares to being in combat with real bullets flying and lives on the line. If you can't handle a DI in your face screaming you are in the wrong line of work son! lol
Lol. Safe-space cards.
Ah ha ha ha Chain Alive, lmao!! 3 Cheers for the demo and the dance!! Laugh and learn. And Brian, no, he won't eat crow, but thanks for causing this video! 😜Ah ha ha ha Chain Aliiiiive....🤣
Use speed 2 at 9:39 to get an amazing effect. Brian, looks like you need to apologize to all those chains you threw away. That's like throwing away ammo.
Loved the song and dance!!
LoL...I thank you....maybe I should have left the whole cut in there. The wife disagreed.
@@3basketliving OH wow! There was more! Lol
Hi I wish we had trees we could cut down here. But we will be looking for some dead trees I don't know if we would need a chainsaw for those though.
I would think a small saw would be handy anyway. You may find yourself getting some big timbers that you need to get thru as well not to mention cut through some walls for a quick fire escape. LoL
Well, there you have it. Sorry, Brian... it appears that no crow was eaten in the making of this video. (The disco flash-back, unfortunately, is something that can never be un-seen.) :D
LoL.....come on Roy, you know you wanted to get you bell bottoms on and start dancing. :p
@@3basketliving I'll hafta mullet over.
Forgot: if you're serious about cutting, get rid of that safety ( not really safe ) chain. A yellow link non safety chain will cut faster with the right skill and experience. Know how fast a femoral artery slice will bleed out ? JMNSHO
Brian please sharpen your chains. Thank you.
I recently went through about 5-8 chains doing Brush Cleanup on a 720 foot fence. Took about 3-4 weeks and had 160 hours on the jobsite... I threw 2 chains and my dad threw more than I did but would changing chains everyday reduce downtime? Because I found myself and my dad spending most of that time just sharpening chains because they kept getting dull on the fence because we wanted to do a good job and cut it as close as we can... I may just stock up on 2 weeks of chains or so and change them everyday and just sharpen every 2 weeks... good idea or nah?
Heather said you might need to get a tape measure. Your cutting your white oak firewood a little short..... Lol
Also, you might want to show people how to cut a dirty log. so they will be less likely to damage the chain... just a thought...
Oh, Kaed wants to be on your really cool videos...his words, not mine.
Well maybe I'm in the process of making some pavers to walk on....I bet she didn't think of that now did she?!? LoL Dirty log...I can just here it now with ppl asking what the heck does that mean...short answer...after felling the tree just brush off the bark with the embedded mud and rock with your gloves. Tell the little guy to start coming up with a cool video idea and I bet us hillbillies can make it happen. ;)
1. PPE 2. ER 3. Less talk 4. You mean well, BUTT 5. Start with brake ON 6. Nice music. Why so many TH-camrs don't use protective gear ? One ER visit could buy a new Stihl..
And, do not sing...please.
So for a 14" bar on my stihl ms171. Every tank of gas I'm no longer getting chips I'm getting dust. Sharpen every tank? Is that a good rule of thumb?
Sharpening every tank sounds like a little much to me. If your getting dust then I'm thinking that your rakes / guides are too high. I hit my rakes about every other sharpening. Just my opinion.
Appreciate you showing the limits for a saw chain good Sir. Getting the most out it safely will save most folks money but also reduce global warming via waste reduction which the leftists should be happy about :D Not sure why they give you a hard time ;-) Thanks for your content from Australia. Let's go Brandon!
So if your chain is sitting for two years while you were deployed, should you change it even though it's still sharp? I just don't want the thing flying off at me. Still got tension between the chain and saw? Any advice would be appreciated.
If you were cutting daily for 2 hours, and not damaging by hitting steel or rock, sharpeninh once a week, how long will a chain last? I ask because I can get chains at half price now so I'm trying to figure how many to buy.
It depends on how much cutting you're doing. Heads Up though!.....You can buy cheap chain from cheaper steel that will Stretch fairly easy and render that chain useless once you reach your saw tension adjustment limit. Keep that in mind.
@@3basketliving they are Oregon speed cut chains. I use a Speed Cit bar. Right now i can get them close to half price so I'm trying to figure how many to buy. I'm thinking 6 or 7 chains.
what is the guitar music towards the end of the video？
Back for another great video 3 Basket Licing..love it...smash the like button for you ...stay connect eachother :)
So did Brian turn in a stress card when you took him down😁
That beginning part about stress cards in the military, preach brother hahaha these new soldiers are soft I’ve been in for 5 years and they was talking about stress cards at basic training back then but we didn’t have them. ✌️🇺🇸 merica
Yeah....I know....that was certainly a failed program to weaken the character of those young men coming to the units. Thanks.
where's the thong dance ?
Bro just get to the point
I was interested in this video until it went political :(
It actually Anti-political. Sorry to have cracked your glass house. LoL
@@3basketliving I don’t think you know what that means the word political... “relating to the government or the public affairs of a country.” Soooo yes it went political. Sorry bud but go back to school.😂
@@lukeboehmer5790 It's all good.....Maybe just put your Big Girl panties on and see if your can find a Tel-a-Tubbie channel that doesn't hurt your little feelers. ;) Curahee!
@@3basketliving You used the word “panties” What do you mean my that are you inferring that girls are lesser or more week?
@@lukeboehmer5790 LoL.....Nice try.......It's a reference in acknowledgment of your above normal sensitivity as a 'typical' man in which I believe that most 'girls' are prone to. Get it? ;)
