i bought an oregon bench grinder (not the mini one) a while ago with a view to setting up a chain sharpening service & never got around to it.

get your workforce to sharpen a few each in the afternoon if you finish work a bit early!! Might take a few sessions but it will get them done - and considering you have allready paid them for the day... cheap too!!

If you can afford new chains instead of sharpening then surely you can afford to get them all sharpened OR chuck em in the bin?

Before I started coming on here I had no idea that people found sharpening chains such a chore.

 

When I fit a chain it stays on till its dead, sharpening is literally a 2 minuet job, even a really badly damaged one only takes 5 minuets.

 

In most cases I would say its quicker to sharpen a chain than to change it.

Skyhuck - couldn't agree more.... I try to touch up chains rather than change them all the time, only the odd check of the guidebar and cleaning the sawdust and oily gunk out of the side casing and socket.

So does anyone else here get satisfaction from bringing a blunt chain back to “ripper” status?

 

I wouldn’t say I like sharpening but it’s the satisfaction of a job well done
