Chainsaw Oregon Powersharp attachment... does it work?!

well I have a 35cc with a 18" bar and it does fine. I cut 4 to 5 cords a year with it plus the clean up around the ranch. Yes you have to have a special chain where the cutting edge is on top of the chain but you get all this with the kit. I have had mine for about a year now and it still cuts like it did the day I put it on. I think it was worth the money.

With regard to using compressed air to clean your chainsaw, be careful where you direct the air. I clogged the bar oil passage on my 350 Husky by driving a wood/dirt chip into the passage. Just a word of caution.

:confused2:What? There's a bar oil passage hole on the bar!
Sorry just yanking your chain. That is the first thing I check when I work on my saws or other peoples. Pretty amazing how gummed up the groove inside the bar will get. Then I clean and lube the roller tips as well.
Good advice about being careful with the compressed air. I do like having a compressor to clean up the flywheel fins and all of the cracks and crevices. Why carry an extra pound of junk on the saw up a tree.
