As long as all their chains are .050 it is a no brainer. Do you charge them? Even at $5 per chain you could buy a new grinder every year and still make a profit.
I charge $6 per. 75% are .050, rest are .063.
I want to set it up and walk away. come back and inspect. The only way to make it worth while is to not spend much time on em..

Styrofoam all over the floor in front of my bench. Sticks to my pants and I track it into the house.

I bought one of them temco sharpeners, will try to check back in when I've tried it out.

Last Saturday I sat and ground 130 chains on my Simington and Foley for four dollars each. If this one can do most of that alone and free me up, its money well spent.

$300 sure is cheap if it gives even "decent" results..

Absolutely. Very few of our customers appreciate the extra effort and cost of square grinding. As long as it goes around the bar and makes chips instead of smoke they're happy!!!

I also like that it can do the depth gauges........

What's the price on that?
Was it just me or did it seem like it was removing alot of tooth material?
That was their way of boasting...
in a Swedish sorta way..
“We can remove this much and keep the cutter cool” sorta thing,

Which for me and anyone else who gets thrashed chains, is important..

It’s probably near $7500.00..

And I’m thinking about worth it.

Yup...

There’s a verse about that somewhere..
