The other way is better for clearance but I like it the way I have it, it's a righty,lefty thing. I tried it the other way after a member pointed it out last summer but it never felt good.Zap, Is there a reason to mount the jig on your saw one way or another? Looks like the stuff on the granberg site has their stuff mounted so the saw rides higher than the cut whereas yours would ride lower (given the pic with the jig mounted on your saw). Is there a reason for it or is it just personal preference? Thnx.
Far out.. Thanks for the answer.. Considering getting one of those myself.. guess I'll have to get a bigger saw though.. I should buy the mill first and then explain to the wife why I need to drop a grand on a new saw..The other way is better for clearance but I like it the way I have it, it's a righty,lefty thing.

When I played baseball I batted left and through with my right arm, go figure.

Make sure you put a hi-lift jack on your shopping list along with a good Oregon sharpener so you save money on all the chains you'll need. This all started for us when the wife said she would like a cabin, so yes it's her fault!Far out.. Thanks for the answer..

Got the 510a last year from Oregon. Still working out the details of how to get it to work just right as there are small adjustments that need to be made between grinding left and right cutters. I was thinking that a small caliper would work to measure each cutter to ensure that I'm grinding them equally. Will add the hi-lift jack to the list. I guess I'll also start putting pictures of cabins on the fridge for the subliminal message..Make sure you put a hi-lift jack on your shopping list along with a good Oregon sharpener so you save money on all the chains you'll need.

Once your stops are set right it should be the same every time. Other than the frount taps for tooth adjustments. Oh Zap, Now your talking!Got the 510a last year from Oregon.

The 075 is 111 cc compared to 91 on the 660. The 075 is about 6000 rpm's (off the top of my head) the 660 is around 13,000 rpm's. Saturday was the first time behind the 075, it will be used along with the 660.
Even though I only used it once it might become my favorite, the 090 is waiting it's turn, can't wait until I bust that out.

It sure does. GIBIRJags, I never noticed until just now but in picture number one it looks like a small cherry over the trail hung up.

If I get the oiler holes taken care of on the new 36 inch bar for the older saws(drilling to make the wholes bigger or new ones) you will see the 090 this weekend.Nice. every time I see your posts makes me want to try it my self. It would be cool to make a table or something. Cant wait to see the 090. Glad that you like your new toys.
