I do the same thing with a new chain, except i do it by hand. If you don't have the eye to do it by hand, then buy a Granberg G-106B, or the Granberg Precision 12 volt chainsaw chain grinder. The biggest problem is using to big of a file. Like on a 3/8 it calls for a 7/32 file, using this file you'll never get it to cut like one of Chainsaw Guys chains. You have to drop down to a 3/16 and you'll get a razor sharp chain. Keep rakers at .025. I've filed by hand for 56 yrs, i logged full time for 36 yrs. In hardwood i kept my rakers at .025, in softwood .035. I kept my chainsaws razor sharp all the time. As soon as it lost the edge, i'd drop and file where ever i was. It takes about one to two minutes to put the edge back on the chain. I can teach anybody how to file their saw so its razor sharp.

Duane it's guys like you that I'd love to learn from. 56yrs of hand filing is a wealth of experience and on the job know how. I'll be looking into those Granbergs you mentioned as I'm sure you wouldn't suggest them if they didn't meet your satisfaction.

I've been using a 7/32 on my 3/8 chain. I'll have to try using a 3/16 next time to see if I can tell a difference. Thanks

That's correct, filing a square ground chain with a 7/32 file wont make it cut as fast as his chains 😜
@brettblack70494 жыл бұрын
@@tonyrobbins6 it will cut faster, but it will also dull faster, especially in dirty wood. The 3/16 does better on the rear half of the chain as the cutter gets shorter toward the back. I feel inspired to be able to give Tony Robbins chain sharpening advice

Very nice, I worked for a gentleman when I was in high school, he had a similar machine to sharpen his chains for his logging/milling business, it was not as fast as this. The cutter was sharpened then the 2nd raker was ground with a separate grind stone, I could have a 20" chain razor sharp in 11 minutes. This was in 1975. Thanks for the video.

Woah that's allot faster than doing rakers by hand with a file and gauge.

I am trying to get my dads old chainsaw up and running again it's been sitting for about 7 years after he passed. It's a Husqvarna 242 (1990 ) it needs a new 16" chain and bar, it's had a full service including carb kit now runs smooth. I am interested in one of your chains how can I purchase one for my 242 ?

Definitely a good thing to have if you have a longer bar, i personally though just freehand in the field but at home i use one of those Husqvarna sharpening gauges especially on my X-cut chain since it's a harder chain to sharpen and that gauge helps keep the right elevation of the file.
@pieinthesky4106 Жыл бұрын
I use the LP Husqvarna roller gauge. Simple and inexpensive: does a job that produces an extremely sharp chain each and every time. The fact that this can be accomplished quickly with the chain on the chainsaw is a huge plus.
