Had a lot of ice damage to my trees. Working it into the wood lot. Never was good at sharpening chains. Question on motorized sharpener:
Seems real complicated setup as compared to a file on the chain while still on the saw or better yet the Dremel tool with the stone. As I see it there is a 1/8" x 4 1/2" wheel that cuts at an angle, like 45* to cut the groove.
What about the depth guide part of the blade preceeding the cutting part? I am using blades 16" or less on gas and electric saws. Groves are 5/32" and depth gauges are .025". When do you do the depth? Been reading what I could from folks selling them but no comment on the depth.
Thanks,
Mark
