A different way to sharpen a chain.

[GASoline71]

Trust me...it will get its own place. I just wonder what happened to the Nostradamus of saw chain???

The door hit 'im where the good lord split 'im...

Good riddance. Thaere were a couple other self proclaimed "experts" that I am glad to see gone too... Funny how they got their panties in a wad when someone who could not "see the light" questioned their tactics...

10 pages of this thread and what did I get? Well......... I got some more links to carb rebuilding, muffler mods and the free saw link was tremendous!!!!
Thanks to all who posted to make this lengthy quandary a worth while endeavor! :deadhorse: :deadhorse:

I can't believe I read all ten pages. Thanks for the Carlton link. Very informative. Some of that other stuff is way too technical for me.

WOW! My head is swimming with dolphins and I haven't even had a beer yet!
If you wanted to see how a chain cuts couldn't you just set up the saw to cut the width of the cut off of the end of a log, basically shaving the end of the log? The only down side is that one side of cutters would not be in wood so it might not act the same as a normal cut would.

Hmmm, has me thinking, you could just use some clear cedar and film it, right? :hmm3grin2orange:

Dude...

You need to get out more.

I use a Granberg jig. My chains are very sharp and cut like a dream. If I happen to "rock" a chain, then I use my Granberg 12 volt hand grinder. This combo has produced a lot of chips & noodles.

Yeah and one day you will find a machine grinder is worth the cost involved the older we get the less time we have and less effort we want to use sharpening chains. My grinder will produce a chain that cuts straight, fast and long in way less time than any method short of using new chains. I don't have any more sore knuckles. I can get one razorsharp with a round file and flat basterd but I can also do the same with my grinder and get drags teeth etc. the same depth and size. I can get them close by hand as well but takes much longer.

So are you saying the guy on youtube with the redneck chain sharpening video isn't doing it right? He just uses an angle grinder!!! LOL

Whom ever resurrected this thread needs too have his incoming wood angle and The travel speed is the sum of the forward speed vector and the cutting speed vector checked!

Hopefully one day that slow-motion video of the chainsaw chain will make it to You Tube.

Send me the VHS or DVD and I'll digitize it and upload it to YouTube...Carl

You mean like in the way the attached image shows?

Also see page 19 and 20 of this link:

I think what you're talking about is relative to the hinge point of the cutter itself.

Cool 777ER thanks for posting that link!

 

[woodguy105]

That is friggin' cool mang!!!

But please start a new thread so this worthless debacle will die away somewhere...

By the way, this guy reminds me of one of my past chinese PhD students who once told me he had proven that God exists. Funny thing is he would never show me the proof.

No one is as blind as one who will not see.:msp_smile:
