I haven't bought any chain loops for a few years but I'm due, before I order from anywhere I wanted to know if any of our sponsors are selling premade loops.
Stihl

Stihl
I thought Stihl did not sell direct. Don't you have to go through a dealer?
Yea, you do afaik. I don't think there's any current sponsors that sell field gear. I'd suggest getting a reel if you have more than one saw that takes tbe same type chain.
Just cutting firewood for myself I don't go through a lot of chain so I just buy loops and the new little battery saw takes a different gage than my Stihls. I will just make a trip to the local Stihl dealer one of these days.

What kind of battery saw do you have and how do you like it

Sounds like an opportunity for someone. It seems we used to have a couple of sponsors that sold this gear.
I used to buy from Baileys, back when they were a sponsor. Dropped them in part because they dropped the sponsorship, and also because things just really seemed to change with them around that time. I still get the occasional tool or part from them, but not anywhere near the level I did in the past.

I will start a new thread with a few comments.
