Do any of you guys use the bench type electric chainsaw sharpeners? I'm paying $5-$10 per chain to get each one sharpened and Harbor Freight has a sharpener for $40. What do you think?
(quoted from post at 10:01:28 04/20/14) As where to find another one i have no idea as the old guy has long since passed and nobody i have talked to knows anything about them chains like he had . He had one chain even better then what i had .
(quoted from post at 10:01:28 04/20/14) Well for a NORMAL chain i use the OLD fashioned File and about five min. on a 20 inch chain . Now if is like the one chain i bought for my one saw ah yea noway were you going to use a file on that one but ya did not have to sharpen it that often . That one did not care if Oh there was and old nail or oh gee there WAS that old fence growen into that tree or oh was that a sandstone i just cut in half .But when it did need dressed the old guy in the wheel chair that sold saws and small engines would have to change the wheel to dress this chain as it was that hard . I had that one chain on that old saw for ten years and it did a lot of cutting . I paid a lot of money for that 16 inch chain and it was worth every penny. As where to find another one i have no idea as the old guy has long since passed and nobody i have talked to knows anything about them chains like he had . He had one chain even better then what i had .
