Depth gauge tool

[slowtorque1]

Can someone suggest a good depth gauge tool to indicate how much to remove tooth by tooth. Hand filing often results in cutters of different lengths, so I want to be able to check each gauge in relation to the corresponding cutter. By the way, I use Stihl RS, round grounf chain. I have been using a Carlton File-O-Plate which works well but seems to result in excessive raker clearances as the cutters are filed back. Thanks

Check out this link. Crofter had one that came close on this thread. I need to see about getting one of these ordered too.

Depth guage tool

you can find a nice depth guage at most husky shops .
They are a flat plate, that will adjust the depth guage at each tooth .They work great allso has a hard wood and soft wood setting .I have used them for ten years now havent found anything better. you have to buy them by chain pitch.
