Saw Sharpening
Can you help me sharpen my chain saw?
I am going to sharpen the teeth. I have the file, I know my angles, and I am comfortable enough doing it. But, I have some hone stones as well. They must have come with the saw – I didn’t even know I had them. Should I use one? Can I use it in a cord less drill? Is the stone just for de-burring after I file the teeth? Any tips? Today is blade sharpening day, so top answer pick by this afternoon.
I’ve sharpened my saws for 35 years and never used anything but a round file and a vise. i just roll the file as i’m pushing away from the cutting edge of the teeth at the same angle as they are factory ground (from the inside of the blade outward) two or three times on every tooth and it always has worked for me. Never back and forth. unless you hit concrete or metal and flattened the teeth you should never need too use anything else!
