Good or bad idea? Saw sharpening or stump grinding?

From doing a message search, he was looking for a Silvey?

Yeah a lot of folks are asking if I do the square back square ground, I don’t as of now but herd Silvey make a good square ground grinder

I usually do less than 15 minutes in a similar, water based, degreaser, followed by a little toothbrush action, and a rinse. Followed by an oven dry to prevent any rusting.

Relube after sharpening.

yeah I tried almost everything you could think of and it did take awhile, but I finally got the chains to look how I wanted them to (CLEAN) lol and I stuck with that method. I’m sure your method works great too.

I think that clean is important, especially with other people's chains. Can't inspect for rust or damage when covered with gunk. Don't want that in my grinder either!

Good luck with your business.

Your 100% correct, no dirty chains ever go on our machines. Cost to much money and it just sharpens smoother.
