Title: OSH has 1/2 galvinized Chain...50% off
Post by: F4? on October 06, 2018, 08:47:23 AM

I am sure the chains could help out on a few routes.

Suggested lengths?

Suggested Routes needing new chains.
Piglet?

Granted they are out of 1/2 quick links.

Next week it should be 60%....

BTW, WTF happened to OSH. I had not been inside the store in years....All cleaned up and polished.
Tons of crap, even Yeti. No wonder why they went under.
No, I do not like change. Just hate it.

I suspect Lowes sold to OSH in advance a ton of crap they had mis-bought.

I stocked up on 50 feet of chain from OSH last week, but it was only 50% discount at that time.  Regarding the situation of OSH, look up on Wikipedia the history of OSH.  Not the first time they have had issues.

Too shiny for me. I likes me some ma-reen hot-dipped galvy chain. Sinks better in the lakes and ocean too  :nonod: :out: :prrr: :ihih: :devildevil:

Yep, that's good stuff and it syncs well with the rock too.

50% is 50%

Who cares about shiny, paint fixes it.

I’ll drop by this week and see if it’s 60% and make my boys load it into the car.


Bummed, no more OSH calendar.

I go both ways. Very metro chainy.

They definitely won’t cut it for you so looking for solution on that cutting front.

I've bought chain at the OSH in San Carlos and they cut it.  Six short pieces all different sizes.  Sometimes I cut it at work on bandsaw.

I think my memory is off, it can't be 1/2", must be 3/8". Anyhoo, they had a lot!

Yeah, i'll see if they will cut it into 12" sections. And make the boys carry it.

Then I can install chain draws on Wet Kiss, Larry Falls, POD....you know a public service.

Noal has it...Bandsaw. I told Mungie a Hacksaw.....build some character.
