You just dress the bar with a belt sander ,works like a charm .
I don't know what the big deal is with a hardnose anyway . They were around long before a sprocket nose was ever even thought of . They just need more oil and a tad less tension .
Well really there isn't anything other than 1/4" that is smaller than 3/8" lo pro /pico ,whatever . Unless it's that little itty bitty stuff for a pole saw .
They grow certain species of bamboo here in the frozen tundra and it does pretty good considering . However the stuff is about like plumed grass and if you don't keep an eye on it that danged stuff would take over .
Owning lot of antique saws I of course have a lot of hardnose bars including a 48" which as matter of fact is shown in my avatar . The older saws had better oilers ,plain and simple .The big Macs and Homies would lay on the oil for as long of bar as they are rated for ,just blow it off the end...
