Finally got there! It has taken a while i know, but managed to get a go with the skip. I got stuck into some beech, some of it full bar length so had a good run. The 660 pulled 36" relatively easily, without loosing much RPM. If anything, the verticle cutting speed is possibly slower than with...

Cheers for that Al, i was starting to wonder why you guys seem so obsessive about it8) Having said that, i do prefer full chisel myself, always seem to be able to get a better edge on than semi. Although, i would rather give a less experienced guy a saw with semi on it, even if its just so it...

Just got delivery of 4 loops of the windsor this morning. Was super fast from Scotland- total of 20 hours from me ordering, him making the loops and it turning up on my doorstep! It is full skip, with a cutter every 3 links. Got one on the 660 now, just need to go and play;) No doubt i will...

Major edit; Due to me having lost several brain cells recently due excessive alcohol intake, i believe my maths is slightly out! With the exchange rate as it is presenly, i belive it works out just under $27 per 36" loop. Dare say you guys will still say thats cheap, as it is here!

My 660 when on 36" bar, cross cutting such as ash, will be at its limit and gums the chain real easy, and it also struggles to clear chips, so skip it is for me, as a cheaper way around it for now. I'll see how it goes, then toy with the idea of high out put oiler also. I think Pete (unless he...

Many thanks for all the replies:) The main thoughts between different size bars, is i am looking for a high chain speed on a 36" bar due to, (as Al says) a slight lacking of oil, and Pete McTree is looking for chain on a 30" bar on his (just cos hes a gear junkie:P) As some of you may know at...

I have been offered some Windsor full skip chain for use on our 660's. The price sounds good enough, but have any of you guys had experience with windsor? The main reason for wanting to put skip on the 36" bar is the slightly lacking oil pump on the 660. We only can get standard pumps here and...
