I was able to get the #50 in there and use some gouges. I like the kit of 4 I bought a lot. Boy have the 6 flexcuts I have for the #50 been helpful! Happy Happy Happy!! pdrake - No, I don't have a dime tip carving bar for my powerhead. I use a standard 14" Oregon sprocket tip bar on my saw. However, I have basically adopted the Benzart 101 approach to my more intricate tiki carving - I use everything and anything to remove the wood that needs to go. I still make and sell my chainsaw only pieces, as well as my chainsaw and grinder pieces, but these more involved pieces require every tool I have (and several things I don't) to pull them off. Thanks for stopping by. -Gman
