Hey there Another great video as per usual. Fantastic explanation of the 2 different types of drives. I can definitely see why ring drives are your go too for your saws. Thanks for sharing Dirk
I agree, when they are new they are not bad and last awhile. By the time I get someone's beat up old saw they are pretty much shot so I go right for the ring drive! lol! Thanks for watching and the comment!
Your observation isnt exactly accurate because you feel clunks from "chain driving the sproket" however the actual clunk pattern in operate is "sproket driving the chain" so it's opposite side of chain drivers making contact with sprocket/ring. When you do chain pull the leading edge of chain is making all major contact, when in operation the rear of chain drive is what get pushed from sprocket /ring.
Exactly! I didn't get that detailed in my explanation, but the concept is the same. Great catch and great comment. I'll have to remember to be more detailed in my findings. Thank you for the comment! And thanks for watching! This is the kind of stuff I like to hear that others put the thought in to what's really happening!!! 🙂
Great video, thanks

They are both types of sprockets. Rim sprocket and spur sprocket.
Yes they are both a type of sprocket. Thanks for watching!
If the saw came with spur drive switch to rim drive when it is time for replacement.

It's Rim drive not Ring drive. How can this be taken seriously if you don't know the name of the thing that you are talking about?
lol! Ok
