Can't really sharpen them Rupe, I think they work well, quite aggressive. I use the cheap Chinese ones. Mines been on its side a few times.

I have a Vermeer 252 with green teeth, when the teeth are new its OK, but as soon as they loose there edge it gets painfully slow. Today I thought I'd try unplugging the Auto Sweep, WOW!!! what a difference. It takes a little more skill (sorry we are not skilled are we:sneaky2:), you need to act less stupidly to operate it, but not having the A/W speeded up the job dramatically!!

I totally agree Mike!!! I know of guys who have very little or no natural ability who became good climbers, but to be a great climber takes more that the stuff you can be taught. I came to tree work a little late (24) and married very young (20) so missed out on the traveling thing, its probably my biggest regret in life. I really wish I had gone over seas and climbed BIG trees. I still hope one day to leave these shores and climb a real monster!! Unlike Stevie, I still love doing big trees and alway price the bigger ones too cheap, cause I still get a buzz out of doing them.

Whats your problem:confused1: You can say you are grinding the stump, as recommended by the show, NOT put slots in it with the saw and pour oil on it like that numb-nut Stanly:thumbdown: (putting oil on a stump will preserve it for years:001_rolleyes:)

I would disagree, I tend to keep my knees a little bent. I find it puts less strain on them and helps absorb any shock or sway.
