Breaking chain
I'm curious what you folks do. I've been using PC870 chains lately. Nice quick-removal link, laterally stiff, seemingly very strong. But when I have to shorten one my Park CT-5 chain tool doesn't fit square in some configurations due to the chain's flared side plates. So far I haven't ruined anything or the tool but I wonder if there is a better alternative.
