Get a grandberg, I have one and it works great.... if you want the stihl do some research there is a guy on AS that sometimes sells them for $200...you will find him!!!!

i want a fg2 i like the looks of it

The wonderful personality known as Bill G over on AS had a few of them for sale last time I was over there. I believe he was asking $210 shipped.

How does one get banned from a forum?

 

[dall]

the owners of the forum acted like they was supreme dictators and let a bunch of *B-S.... go on and banned the wrong side so i let them see how i felt and if i ever met those 2 id probably break every finger they have and give them a nose job

Ya the bill g was whom I was referring.... the stihl just seems so high to me... Hell you can get a electric grinder for same price

i have a electric grinder a 511 clone and i dont like it and havent used it in over a year and a half

Different strokes, for different folks.

(Besides, you don't have to choose if you are a real chain geek. )

Yep, i own the both a grinder and granberg(can get a GREAT cutter profile with it!!!)....I guess I should have said they seem to close in operation to deem such a higher price, but as you said different strokes!!!!!

Yes, the grinders have ALOT of quirks to figure out before you can get a good cutting edge....i used to be on the hand-filing only team.... decided hell with it, I want to see what these grinders are about...well I couldn't be happier(and let me say I Looked HARD to find a fault with it!!!)...have angles, stone profiles, zeroing the vise, and depth adjustment to figure out just to name a few....but when all the stars align, you can turn out a proper chain in fairly quick time!!!!!

i can file faster than i can use the grinder so i guess it is not for me to grind

That's to bad they gang up onnpeiple like that....of course I never liked people that jump on the band wagons....if everyone else is going right, I am going left just on principal!!!!!

I got ya.... I wish you were closer to me, hell I would let you use the granberg as long as ya like!!!!!

 

[dall]

[dall]

nice, I will dive into the hand-square filing soon enough.... this darn grinder has been keeping my chain sharpening bug at bay for now....man I like how easy it is to clean gullets in a grinder!!!!!

How is the square filing going for you????
