  1. ok, i was trying out the built in chain tool, and i noticed it seems to bind up on one side every
    revolution.

    Is it supposed to do this to keep it from vibrating out and getting lost, or is it supposed to
    be smoother?

    Lets just say, the force to turn it seems un-natural for a feature.

    Does it do this with no tention on it or only when pushing the pin out of a chain?

    with no tension. the binding seems to come from the last few threads on the chain side of the
    thread block.

    Not normal, if it's binding a lot you might want to get it replaced.
