This video is by far the best "How to file a chainsaw chain" I have watched (and I've watched a ton of experts). The real value of your video is that you not only show the process, but you also give a very good explanation of why you are doing it and what the consequences of incorrect profile are. Thank you for a very informative video.

Great job on keeping the video simple and to the point!👍👍 I believe the biggest issues for most folks when learning are dull files (if you don't see a pile of metal you are just stroking the air), not applying near enough pressure and not near enough strokes of the file.(3 or 4 gentle strokes may work on a touch up but dull/damaged chain will ALOT more) I have broken a sweat many a times digging in and getting one truly ready to cut!🤠

I hand filed all my saws. Usually in my vise. I bought plastic grips for the vise so I don't damage the bar. Use a Oregon guarge to .025 thou, then one full stroke on each raker so I likely end up at about .028 thou. The saws cut wicked good and never have a issue with skipping or being to sharp thus stalling out the saw. On another note got my 272xp in the wood today. Cut some 16" green ash. Man does it cut great. 20in Holzfforma bar with a full comp chain, new 266 muffler, new chain break, 234A tillotson carb,, new clutch (3C spring steel type) bearings, seals, cylinder, piston, deleted base gasket, new fuel line and filter, new oiler. My new favor saw...lol. I'll send you a video on email. Nice video as always. TC Mahalo Tinman🤙🤙🤙

Great stuff. I love your emphasis on smooth cutting. I fix saws for a firm as part of my living and I see a lot of very blunt/damaged chains and chains with incorrect angles and gullets. This means that the operators are working much harder than they need to, are damaging bars (and saws) and exposing themselves to more risk than is necessary. When felling, it is harder to get accurate cuts with a blunt chain. Misplaced cuts make it more likely that your fell will go wrong. Running with a blunt chain gives the temptation to push on the saw or swing it on the dogs to force it to cut. When you're doing this you are gripping the saw harder which increases the effects of vibration on hands and arms. If your depth gauges are high, the same temptation applies. If your gullets are too deep (and depth gauges too low) you get more vibration and you have to hang on to the saw harder. Why am I getting excited about 'smooth cutting' and low vibes? 'Cos vibes cause tissue and nerve damage. Prolonged exposure to high levels of vibes causes carpal tunnel syndrome and/or Reynaud's syndrome (also known as vibration whitefinger or Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome). There is a painful and damned inconvenient operation to fix the first, but as the second is nerve damage and nerves don't regenerate, HAVS is yours for life, and it's life-changing. Happy days. Love this post and the older one.

It surprises me how many tree guys don't realize this or care. I custom file my chains so they perform much better than new, and when they are slightly duller than a new chain, its time to kiss it with a file. Too many tree guys don't understand that it costs you less time to keep up on a chain than wait till the teeth lost shape before sharpening.

@@nate2838 Yeah, me too! A lot of foremen and company owners don't seem to care either. They foster a culture of 'make the effort, get the job done'. But stopping at convenient points in the work for little, short breaks and a tickle on the saw chain keeps you fresh. It also speeds up the work in the long run 'cos as well as your cuts all taking less time and effort, while you 'tickle' and take on a drink of water, you can be thinking through the next fell or the route the forwarder is going to take to uplift your bunched product. You can direct your next fells so you can be efficient and economical on effort of doing the bunching. Keep your little breakies short and the foreman doesn't notice the same as he would for a longer sharpen. The boss doesn't notice, ditto, even if he (usually 'he') is on site. This is the same boss that has collated all the saw vibration stats, done the risk assessments and put them in the job pack and method statement and supplied them to the client. He is bound by them but usually is far more interested in 'more effort' than what they actually mean.

Great video! Especially about the burr. I would have shown people the tooth slightly before the burr forms, looking from the front. You can usually see a little line across right below the top of the tooth. Some people don't realize how far you actually go to get to the top of the tooth. I like that you go heavy into it, to get the gullet back, and then lighten up when you are close to the top and making the final few strokes. And, you talked about too much hook a little, and not enough. You said have the file about 2/3 down, to get the correct C, and I think that is where experience on how hard and when to push down, lighten up a little, etc. comes in. You could have showed a little more on rakers. But, everyone figures that out pretty quick. I do them all from my strong side, and just angle the file a little more on the wrong side, so it doesn't chatter. I just got a crappy blue grinder, and I cannot get that thing to make me a decent chain. Yeah, it is a bit faster to sharpen - but then I need to go back and hand file all the chain again anyway ... so it actually takes almost twice as long.

Dang it your going to make me sharpen my old chains as well as buying a couple new ones for next weekend. I have a big oak to drop and cleanup. I want good sharp chains for this. The tree needs to go between a shed and power line and not hit the neighbors house. It has just a bit of canopy weight on the backside but it’s perfectly square to the fall line so I’m confident I can do it. If there was nothing around I feel like I could do it free hand so adding a winch line and using wedges as insurance I’m fairly confident in the drop, and my insurance 😂😂😂. I’ll charge $1 to make it business to make it covered without question. I initially spent 10 minutes looking at it thinking a climber was needed until I saw the line. The lightbulb went on, and I said I’ll do it if the neighbor gives written permission with a statement saying if the ground was disturbed it wouldn’t be considered damage.

I sharpen just like that when I'm not at my vice, bar stuffed into the corner of my pickup bed. I use those same files and just the raker gauge not the roller thing. One more thing on those file handles it has the a 25 and 30° side the 30° side lines up with the line on the chain so if you just push the file all the way to the bar it helps you keep a consistent angle. I don't push it right to the handle every stroke but just to keep it in check.

Sharpening chainsaw chains with a file is for people who like using washboards to wash their close as opposed to using a washing machine, and for people who like using hand saws vs skil saws, and so on. The best way to sharpen a chainsaw chain is with a Dremel Tool with the right size sharpening stone. You can buy the Dremel Tool and the sharpening stones at Lowe's or Home Depot. Sharpening chains with a Dremel tool is three times faster than sharpening it with a file, and it takes of half the amount of metal, which means if you're using a Dremel Tool to sharpen your chains they will last twice as long. And this is no joke or exaggeration.

Any time the trees are in a line on an old farm.... good chance theres wire in the stumps. I've got plenty of filing to do next rainy day in the shop...

The snake did not get its fangs in me, as it struck the front of my Pfanner chainsaw pants. I climbed and rigged and cut four oaks and one big black gum. One of the oaks had a huge broken limb that had fallen onto the ridge of the house. The limb was nearly sixteen inches in diameter at the base, fourty or so feet long. I rigged it with a bridle and was able to raise, then swing and lower it. I work by myself and it was alot of rigging and ascending and prep work. My friend can now feel safe during a storm and not worry about any of the dead tall oaks falling on her home. Floods have killed many trees on her farm.

I think Buckin did that as an experiment, could be interesting. Hope all is good with the new "little tinman" ( or would that be Tinman Jr?) and your wife.

While the tip up vs down is very important with the correct file, its absolutely critical with the wrong file. Too big? Tip down to get under the tip of the tooth. Too small? Tip up to cut the corner instead of undercutting the tooth. Its also helpful to start with a downward angle to develop a seat for your file on the inside (opposite the cutting corner) corner to use for stability while sharpening with a different curve than it already has. This also works great when the saw is damaged, and is essentially the boat stroke.

If there is anything an aspiring saw wrench or porter should learn first, it's THIS, in my opiniom. If the chain ain't sharp, you're on the fast track to failure.

Thank you for dumbing it up. Don't take offense to me saying this. I watched 3 or 4 other videos and didn't understand what they were talking about. You helped me understand. Thank you. Really, I'd buy you a couple rounds if I were close. Thanks again

​@@shakeyjake9813I wish you the best, brother. Get those chains SHARP and learn how to recognize when they are going dull and learn how different sharpening angles do with different types of wood. It's a big deal.

Great video Tinman! I purchased one of those Husky file guides about 3 years ago; piece of rubbish. The Stihl 2 -in-1 file guide is AWESOME! Love it but you've still got to check the gullet every now and then (no problemo). The Oregon grinder is too fast and removes too much of the tooth for my liking. The Granberg gadgets look pretty cool but I can't find them here in Australia so I've never had the chance to try one out.

Nice Vid, tinman! I only handfiled all my life, but for the .404 rippinchains I now prefere to grab a grinder. They dull after every 3rd or 4th slap of oak (if you don't hit anything) and it gets a real pain in the a** to handfile them in the evening. For bucking and felling i use square ground chains and the are only handfiled (that grinder costs way to much and I like that filing - and want to train myself to get the filing to perfection). Best wishes to your wife an baby. Hope you're all doing well! Stay safe and secure!

Thank you so much for this video. Chain sharpening is something I have been a bit timid to tackle but after watching this I feel like I can get started on it. Great detail and to the point.

Thanks, Tinman. I really like your use of the truck box corner as a “vise”. I hadn’t thought of doing that. Old dog learns new trick.

He puts the bar cover on the tailgate of the truck to prevent the teeth from dulling while touching it but then jams the tip of the bar into the corner of the truck box.

Tinman, you and Buckin have done the best hand filing videos out there. I have found that since I adjusted my way of filing, my cutting experience has dramatically improved. The art of “knowing how to do stuff “ is dying slowly. Humanity has become a “disposable product consumer “ over the course of time. The big box stores power equipment is “Meh” and it has no longevity, thanks to folks mixing their own gas with ethanol mixed in. I quit running anything with ethanol in any of my 2 strokes. Have you thought about maybe doing a series on running 2 identical saws, running 40:1 in one and 50:1 in the other for a period of time and pulling the top ends off and checking ring wear, etc. I personally run 40:1 in all my saws and weed eating equipment. Thanks for all the info that you give out. Much love to you from NC🤙🤙

You file just like me. But I one hand both sides. I was tired of finding something the right height to put my tip against, and my tailgate isn't always in the shade. Bsafe bud
