never could file it right. I hear ya, i'm gonna try that soon. only with a 90cc. is it really that much better?

best way i can describe it ,is its like adding 10cc's to your saw ,its much smoother cutting ,and bore cuts real nice ,i run semi skip ,its nicer for limbing then full skip ,i just bought a used silvey grinder off ebay ,and bring a bunch of chains in case i hit some dirt

 

[treeslayer2003]

Better clearing of chips imo and it cuts like a chisel rather than a gouge but sharpening it is as ya said different .........I hand file ......never liked a grinder lol

boght a grinder, hate it. hand file everything, even harvester chains. jus gave up on the sqare.

seems like these newer saws jus don't have the compression of the older ones. I never use the decomp. I used to wish the old ones had it.

I just prefer to file by hand like you prolly could be getting on with it instead of setting up machine lol........and if necessary ya can file in the woods lol

that 461 runs real good ,little more chain speed than my 660 ,pretty close on the tourque with both saws ,i have a 460 also ,the 461 is noticeably more powerful than the 460 running the 2 side by side,its louder than my 660 also ,them quad ports must move a lot more air
