loved it. MORE chain tech...and thanks for spreading info in the bar. Not all of us Know everything....if you know what I mean. Appreciate the info share Look at you....50k now!
Gordy did a nice job on those gages and so far they are holding up well- I scooped one up for the 63ps 3/8 lo pro and was finally able to dial in the chain to the powerhead on the 562xp - it cuts thru wny hard maple like a hot knife thru butter 🧈
From bottom left clockwise for the depth gauge plate - 0.050, 0.038-0.040, 0.035, 0.025 (stock depth). I am usually setting 0.035 but run 0.050 on saws for just buckin firewood. All west coast woods. Appreciate the video Mitch.
Nice video man! Also loving the WCS raker guages, It doesn't wear down when you'r filing on it. The standard .325 doesn't like the anti kickback chains thou, but I'm not a big fan of those chains. Since in my experience, I only get about 4 filings before I cant even use the tip of the bar to cut anything. I fully agree with using the guage. In a perfect world you can count your strokes and get a perfect result. In my experience, there is always a handfull of rakers that's got a different hardening than the rest, usually 3-4 thats hard like diamons on a 20" chain.
I find it funny that you post a rakervideo with the WCS plate, two days after I recived mine in the mail, are you a mind reader? 😂☺️ Thank you for posting 😃🍻
Love the simple .325” WCS plate. Wish the unused slots weren’t there on the 3/8” version, so I could more easily teach people how to use the thing. No more crooked cutting chains if they just would use the tool!
its not always the chain that makes a saw cut crooked as well. having uneven bar rails will do it too which alot of people dont pay as much attention too.
It's not boring . Now I'm curious if Stihl makes the 28 inch 04 bars . You pushed it and when you go back you lift I saw it brother !! I wish I knew you a long time ago ! You seem like a good guy Mitch ! I enjoy meeting like minded people !! I don't have many friends .
I did enjoy watching this! thanks for the info much appreciated

Nice video, Mitch. These gauges are excellent!
