Granberg precision grinder

What's your opinion folks, worth the money?

It's a bit of a fiddle the first few times you use it , really good for battered chains though . I'd recommend them .

yes a bit of a faff i got the one that clamps on the bar etc ideal for when you,ve been using your saw to cut scrap metal and stones up etc so yes has its place in my chain recovery dept lol

Great piece of kit, as said its a bit of a fiddle at first but simple enough after the first 2-3 times

If the first time you use it and are being shown by someone else. Make sure that someone has:

1. Read the instructions

2. Has understood the instructions

3. Isn't practicing their inability to use the grinder properly, to inaccurately 'sharpen' your chain.

5. If this person is insistent, that particiallly sharpening the cutters, will add extra life to the chain. Stick fingers in ears and start la la laing until they stop talking. (What's the point in have an accurate grinder, if you ignore one of its best features?)

 

Great device! If you can wrestle it from the uninformed.

Got one off rob at chainsawbars and its great, a little bit fiddly, but the time taken to set it up is still less than sharpening half the chain with a file, and once you get going, you sharpen the chain like a razor in minutes, just be carefull not to blue the teeth. Best bit of chainsaw kit I have bought for years.
