chain shortening
    #12405108 - 04/16/10 07:12 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

how does one shorten the length of a chain without a chain tool? i bought one today, just to realize that i didnt bring more money to buy the tool, so...how would one go onto doing this without the chain tool? :confused2:

you could try using a drift and a masterlink, but for about $5 you can have it shortened in a shop

the tool was 7$, not that I'm cheap, it's just that I don't want to make another trip over there in this heat. I figured someone around here would have a chain tool :bored:

I'm just trying to fix my beach cruiser. :sad:

$7 is much cheaper than I figured it would be, a chain breaker for a
chainsaw is around $20, the spinner is another $20 plus the parts, the
spinner/breaker combo is $50, go figure... if you're getting it all for
under $10 it's a bargain

I could work you up a tool to do the job but it'll cost more than the $7
you would spend buying the tool, of course you could break most any chain
with mine

save your trip out again for early tomorrow, pick it up then

If I don't have a chain tool I use a socket, a punch and a hammer. Punch the link pin out while its sitting on top of the socket and then adjust your chain as necessary. Then after just beat the pin back in and if the link is too tight then just wiggle it back and forth till it works good. I would rather use a chain tool but I'm one of those people that won't wait to get things done if I want them done at a certain time.
