@curious2gardenAny update on the sharpener? I've got a huge dead oak & another big one that was struck by lightning that need to come down.
MorninOops, good almost afternoon, happy people.
Or if you’re in Hawaii…6 hours and 12 minutesYuppers still have 13 minutes till you're late.
Oh. Then shit, gonna go get back under the covers.Yuppers still have 13 minutes till you're late.
Back in the olden days before electricity when I still cut a lot of wood, this company had everything you needed for chainsaws, mills, etc.@curious2garden
So I did buy one. $25 this month.
I sharpened a few chains yesterday, starting with my most worn chain as practice, It seems to work well, and it's quicker than I expected. I mounted it to a piece of scrap 1 x 4 and then it can be clamped to a bench when needed, and put away when not. Plus this way with a chair you are right at eye level.
What I like best is you can take a whole lot less meat off your chain than they do at a shop...I can see chains lasting much longer with this.
It has adjustments for depth and angle so they say it can sharpen any chain. It's the typical HF unremarkable quality, but I think well worth the money.
The true test will be seeing how it cuts, and hopefully I'll have an update on that later today. I'm going to start with a smaller one hanging over my driveway, and near power lines I'll let you know how it cuts!!

If you're in Hawaii time doesn't matter.Or if you’re in Hawaii…6 hours and 12 minutes
If you’re rich and vacationing in Hawaii, sure. But most people on the islands still gotta work…If you're in Hawaii time doesn't matter.
If I did that you'd see me pushing one cart & pulling another.It's 1 pm tomorrow in Japan already, lol, , and I read today they are just opening the country back up after 6 months of shut downs!!
I know, I know, what's that have to do with anything??? Nada, but I did just get baked...Pre grocery store baked!
that would be an interesting show to watch.......have it right after the show Munchies on the Vice channel.....There should be some sort of game show where a bunch of contestants get stoned and then have to find ingredients in a supermarket for some elaborate munchie recipe.
Thank you! I'm looking forward to hearing how the sharpened chain cuts. I see a Christmas dilemma solved if it does a good job!@curious2garden

How big is your christmas ham?Thank you! I'm looking forward to hearing how the sharpened chain cuts. I see a Christmas dilemma solved if it does a good job!
Munchies to me don't have a recipe, they come in bags or something nukable in the microwave. Green chili burrito's with caramel corn and a hershey bar for dessert...lol.There should be some sort of game show where a bunch of contestants get stoned and then have to find ingredients in a supermarket for some elaborate munchie recipe.
