[Closed] PSA - Free PowerSharp system for your chainsaws 🙂

Cheers Geoff

thanks geoff.

Worth a shot. They dont list my model of Stihl but I guess it's not that important if it's a universal product....soon find out 🙂

Thanks Geoff could'nt find my model of stihl so did'nt complete and don't you need the specific powersharp chain as well?

I *think* the offer is for bar, chain and sharpener.

Fingers crossed anyway.

I'd given up on this, but just received an email saying my kit has been despatched - happy days!

I'd forgotten all about it, no sign of an email though 🙁

Just got my email through today 🙂

Just received kit comprising of bar ,new chain and powersharp tool.

Nice one Geoff.
Cheers

*drumms fingers on desk waiting for postie to turn up

Saw the original post and thought my chainsaw would be too old, but have had a poper look and it's listed so will see if I'm now too late.

Missed this first time around, but have just submitted my details, so fingers crossed

Got my package today. Contains, chain, bar and sharpener, but also a free pair of gauntlets which was a nice suprise.

Thanks to Oregon but mostly to Geoff for the heads up in the first place. STW is great sometimes.

Bring on the winter wood heap!!!

Bleddy ueless web form won't accept my chain length. Maybe because the saw is a Ryobi. ****ts.

got mine this afternoon, forgot all about it TBH, chain sharpening session tomorrow morning, think there are six hanging up in the shed.

If you provide feedback on the web they're send a 2nd free chain too. Assuming it would come with a new sharpening stone as chain and stone are meant to be replaced together.

BTW globalti what length is your bar? There should be one around the size you want, chain length is determined by bar length so pick a bar size and the chain will match. These are my thoughts BTW I'm no expert.

its crap though, they dont list any decent pro saws..

Fingers crossed.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yay - mrs j's turned up at her work and another set has arrived at my mum's.
The gloves look good too!

Another one here today - thanks OP

I got a set and I don't even own a chainsaw! 😆

(Heads over to Ebay...)

OK, I filled the from for a 14" Husqvarna 240. Let's see what happens.

Mine's arrived. Will fit it this afternoon I think. Probably take it for a spin tomorrow - have a few cords which I could lop up.

I think thing to note, is that it's a 3/8" pitch chain, so taking that into account, and the fact that there's no identifying markings on the packet or the bar, it should be universal. Will find out when I try and whack it on the MS-230.

Missed this previously, submitted now.

Mine arrived today, thanks for the heads up.

I came to this party late (a week ago) but have just had the email saying my kit is onthe way... might still be worth a trying.

bloody hell the courier was quick.. on my doorstep this morning, an hour after the email arrived.

Out f the box my chain was sharp. Made short work of a few lengths of ash I had lying around. But I doubt Im going to need to sharpen it for a while.

However mentioned it to a "pro" user in the pub the other evening and suggested he might have more use out of it than me so will let him have it and then post his findings on the site for the extra chain. In exchange he has a spare 12" bar I can have. I got sent a 16" one which is unnecessarily big for me as I dont even need my normal 14" one.

Looked at it at the forestry show last year and was tempted to buy on to try but then thought it only takes a few minutes to sharpen the saw and it gives a nice break while doing it. But fair play if you got a free one.

I've fitted and used mine a couple of times. It feels to be a bit more aggressive than a regular chain, but seems to work well. I've not had to sharpen it yet, as I rarely cut on the ground, so we'll see how that goes when I need to.

I want one of these next

Just got my email this morning too, perhaps it will be on my doorstep when I get home!

Well going by the courier's delivery standards, I'd expect it to be there or just plain stolen.. delivery note said "on bricks" - luckily I'd already noticed the package in the corner outside

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou

Got mine today. I've got a couple of tonnes to do in a month or so when next in France and this will help. I had two big trees blow over a few weeks ago and you can't refuse free wood. It's the law 🙂

Mine arrived this am too with bar, chain and a pair of gloves. Just bought some gloves on Thursday too damn it.

How long are you waiting between signing up and delivery? Did my form about 3 weeks ago but not heard anything. 😥

Just over a week for me.

Oh and huge thank you for the heads up.

I think the depatch is a bit random tbh. I've received confirmation emails for 3 bits of kit and 5 have turned up. There is plenty of time for it to turn up yet IMHO.

Thank you for your interest in Powersharp®

Thank you for your interest in PowerSharp®.

edit; just checked.... registered 2 weeks ago so maybe OK.

As above, I came to this thread late, and emailed them about a week before it arrived, say 2 weeks ago at most...

thread resurrection 🙂

Got mine on weds afternoon, very nice surprise it was too. Looks like an interesting bit of kit and the gloves were a welcome bonus, although i found the left glove a bit tight.

will need to mod the saw as its not quite the right chain for it (annoyingly they didn't spec the husqvarna model i have) but looking forward to trying it. If it is as easy as it looks it will certainly be getting the thumbs up from me as shaprening a chain well is a necessary evil 🙂

I messed up ordered for Husqy 240 but I should have ordered for 340 E series, must email them and ask if they're compatible.

Ive got mine but not fitted it yet, anyone used theirs yet and does it work?

Got mine today, after giving up all hope of receiving it! Will have to get a different sprocket for it to work on my small saw (024) but should be ok. Gloves too... size 11?!?! Hands of the Yeti...Anyone want to swap them for some size 9's??

I'm a little late to the party but have filled in the form anyway.

Looked over these at work but they just don't compare for us. 5-15 sharpens is pretty piss poor longevity. Great for less frequent garden users as sharp saws are far safer than blunt ones. Not physically had our hands on one to see if it compromises the rakers.

But for frequent users, sharpening is a doddle and they'll probably like to buy their chains 100 foot at a time as we do.

Got mine today (thought I'd missed the boat), looking forward to giving it a go.

I've been using mine a few weeks now and I'm really impressed. The chain cutters are a different design with more of a side rip instead of a straight through pull. I've used it for everything from cutting up pallets for kindling to milling seasoned oak buts and it's been excellent. I've not had to sharpen it yet. Using my normal setup, I'd have had to have done at least 1 serious sharpen - cutting pallets on the ground is going to shag the chain no matter how careful you try to be.
The extra aggressive chain is a pleasure to use - just as well really, as I have 5 sets to get through 🙂

Gloves too... size 11?!?! Hands of the Yeti...Anyone want to swap them for some size 9's??

I have some 9's that I'd gladly swop for 11's please 😀

 

valleydaddy: ygm 🙂

Another pair of size 11 gloves here - I'd be happy to swap to something smaller if anyone fancies it.

I'm impressed with the set I got. Not as clean a cut as the standard Stihl chain and rather agressive at first but it's settled down a bit now.
Sharpening is SO easy but we'll see about longevity.(sp?)
