I can sometimes see the benefit of chucking on a fresh chain to save a bit of time on site, but not sharpening is madness.

Workshop time with beers, tunes, halogen heater on bench?

Better than watching shite on telly.

Even better as the wife likes to give me oral pleasure when I'm sharpening all the saws.*

What's your wife on today Mark? I've got a few chains I'm going to sort out later 😀

Thank you gents for all the replies. Didn't realise when I got into this that chains were like loo roll - a use once and throw away item. ;). Rather than sharpening my chains today I'm going to be writing to Rogue Traders about Stihl and these useless sharpening kits they sell - what a con!

The swallowed iron filings are probably very nutritious.

Don't forget, its important to have a bit of hook on the chain.

 

For reference I have attached a pic of just the right amount of hook required...
