How to square file

[Deets066]

Nice Kevin!

Is it ground or filed Jeff?

Kevin hand-files his chains! Lol

 

[Deets066]

Kevin hand-files his chains! Lol

I disagree

 

[RI Chevy]

Not unless he bought a grinder. I always see Kevin hard at work hand-filing his chains.
I learned a lot from watching him. [emoji106]
The true importance of having a sharp chain and keeping gullets open and clear.

Look closely at the teeth
Is it filed or ground ?
I have my files, yes ......... but that doesnt rule out Deets question

Is it filed or ground ?
How would you tell ?

 

[RI Chevy]

I was looking for little striations from the file. On 2nd look, it does appear to be ground. Also looks like a little metal dust on front of tooth.
You holding out on us? You get a grinder?

Thats not dust, thats muh skin
It was ground
Way easier than filing if you can get your hands on a machine that can produce a tooth like that

I gotta start saving for one.

Who said that I bought one ?
What is true; is that I used a Simington 451c for that chain

Looks nice. How does it perform? In softwood of course...

 

[Deets066]

I bet it holds up better than you think in hardwood

Your avoiding the question, again. RIC...

It’s definitely going to hold up to any green wood, being 404, theres alot of meat there

Well, you never asked me anything

Again, how does it perform? Smooth, you had to lean on it, it was super fast, say sumtin.
