Grippy gloves so you have to squeeze a little less.

A little I think you are correct Need to revisit

That's what I did with the stamped metal Oregon guide that the file clips in. Then transitioned to hand filing. Anybody tried the dremel grinders with diamond bits? I think they make a smoother, sharper tooth than a file or wheel grinder. Just got one and there is a bit of a learning curve...

I’ve been watching videos of this youngun for a while now. Talented for sure.

I woke up this morning and looked in the mirror and said “I look like Ted Kazinski”. Still too cold for a haircut.

I guess I’ve been using training wheels for the better part of two decades. Damn I guess I’ll never learn lol.

I prefer the chainsaw and its sharp teeth far away from me. Having it stored by the handle put it directly in the way of the hand/arm during the climb. The idea bothered me at the beginning, but I tried this method anyway because why not. I discovered in less than one hour that my worry wasn't...

That's why I like the roller. You can see and learn what's happening to transition to freehand. Training wheels.

My opinion is guides are a learning tool , I refuse to be guide dependent and believe in hand filing (its like what if there was a disaster where guides are unavailable with work to do).On file diameter as Jerry teaches there is a place where dropping 1/32" is beneficial (after chisel is about...

IYKYK.

I use the “Libby” app to get books from our local library. They have that book listed… Better than spending $28

I use a pulp hook and find it Far better than lifting with bare hands

Remember to squat , and not twist while loaded, as possible.

Grip 101% percent of what is necessary, not 125% of what's necessary.

Lifting smaller rounds onto the hyd splitter is definitely different exercise than hand splitting huge ones on the ground 😆

Larger file creates less hook and more durable angles, slower cutting. Larger file works better on a new cutter…smaller diameter as the cutter is used up and gets lower. I have some 1/4” files that I ground a flat side on that rides in the bottom of the gullet to maintain height…copy of stihl...

I don’t climb but I’d echo these guys to look at technique.
