Semi chisel picco is ideal for most of my work, which is stuff like 12” birch on ironstone sand. The reason I only run a small saw most of the time is that I only make a few cuts, the digger does the rest. An MS261 is ideal to lift out of the holster on the digger repeatedly without getting knackered. View attachment 84671
Is alright your still a step up from me. Ive become so lazy I can't even be arsed to sharpen chains for my Makita cordless saw. Just stick a new one on periodically and try not to hit anything in the meantime😂

It went in ok but the bottom of the pond was too soft- with the bucket flat giving flotation you could get on it but tracks sunk enough to make life interesting when crowding the bucket. Tried scooting around the firmer edges but not practical when I could just get the digger in there and pile it up.

It was handy for moving silt from piles on the banks to the fill in spots though. View attachment 84659View attachment 84660View attachment 84661
I was too embarrassed to take pics of my pond problems today. Happy to report the digger is out of the slop that I got too close too!!

Ringing up some logs for a customer before some rhody bashing.

Dong worry @HuntingHicap , the ms462 is full chisel!😉 Won’t last long in these sandy conditions though, lots of sparks as I go….

Speaking of semi chisel, anyone want to pick fault with the chips from the picco chains I did yesterday? Got the side cover for the echo 501 last night and thought I’d give it a run in the smaller stuff…

Im the same never been taught or learnt anything about sharpening chainsaws. Just stick a new one on. And here is @doobin Judging the chips that come off his chainsaw 🤯. There is a guy 30mins or so away that sharpens them dead cheap but not worth the drive for handful of times I use mine.
