need info on chain breaking

Hi Guys I Was Just Wanting To Know If Anyone Knows The Best Possible Way To Remove A Link To A 415 Chain Without A Chain Breaker

Bench grinder...belt sander...disc sander with 36 grit disc?

Use a hammer and punch or nail on a wood block with a hole big in the wood big enough for the chain pin to go into as you drive it out.

 

[K.i.p]

Use a good c-clamp, place a small socket behind the link pin, tighten clamp. This wont drive the pin through but you can take it to flush, then drive it through with punch as above. Have done it, does work.

Like 26incher said, sander or grinder. I use my hand held grinder to remove the swedge on the end of the pin then just pop it apart with my hands and a screw driver. Very simple. Wear your safety glasses!
