Quit being wasteful......spin those sprockets around the other way and soak the chain in gear oil.

Kidding man - those are picture perfect examples of worn sprockets.

You mean that POS that looks like you hacked off a spade and costs 25 bucks @ lowes ?
That ...
Sheesh, if I was plonking that type of $$$ I'd want a full spade.
I'm making out OK with a pick and a trowel.
Cool.

still a tough job with rocks etc ... but you can apply some pressure...

but at least with the smooth disc thing you can sharpen it again... use it on concrete drive edges etc ... or a really big ass pizza!!!  :icon_mrgreen:
