After receiving several responses to my earlier thread asking for some advice on connecting a roller chain together with the connecting link I accomplished the task this morning. Armed with several good ideas, the first one I tried was quickly successful so didn't try any of the others. I used the suggestion of using the teeth on the larger sprocket as the holding device so I pulled the chain tight and put the two ends next to each other on the sprocket and inserted the connecting link to connect each end together. After the link was installed it was Miller Time and mission accomplished. I received several great suggestions and I'm sure most would have worked equally successful but this was the easiest and didn't require any special tools other then a screwdriver to slid the safety piece over the two pins of the connecting link. Thanks to everyone who provided input on this matter as this was my first roller chain experience and was a great learning opportunity, Hal.
