who sharpens your chipper blades and for how much per blade

[Stephen Blair]

Just had call from a firm in Sheffield. They had a good website. They can cut the cost of sharpening my blades by 75%.

so are they cheap or were you getting fleeced up till now:laugh1:

Did they just call you up towting for work:001_huh:

[Mark Bolam]

How often do you change them on your timberwolf Mark. I feel like mine need a change soon.

 

Probably average about 15 hours mate. As soon as the chip quality dips I swap them. I'm also pretty anal about what goes in my chipper!

Saturn are cold calling (and sending letters saying we see you don't shop with us) at the minute, quoting £4.75 per blade inc vat with free return postage.

 

They are promoting a new arb shop too but are too willing to slate other suppliers when they ask who do you buy from now.

 

I was told one of the major suppliers/sponsors of this forum is a rip off!! That must be why I get 90% of my stuff from them due to their price and customer service. Not the way to run a business IMHO

 

They are only 1/2 an hour from me but I am not sure they will be getting much trade from me. I will stick to dealing with the bloody southerners!!

Always nice a sharp, and will try to do them while I wait.

I have used The Sawrite Company for a few years. They charge for blade size and how much work is done to them. Prices have always been good and the work perfect. They collect and deliver or post. They're based in the south east, can't remember where. Call them on 01903 738630.

I use saturn for my blades and for bits of my climbing gear have had no probs they will price match on most things. Shame shop is small but i like to use local places.
