Does sharpening the gullet make that much difference in hedge ? In fir i dont notice any difference.

I would think anyone in their right mind should be able to tell a difference.
Did you slide the chain holder back to steepen up the angle?

That chain was ground ,and if you look at the gullet he sharpened it like a cutter so it would help cut as it removed debris .study the picture more grasshopper ,and you too will be a chain ninja someday .

It’s a ground chain with a low corner it could use the wheel dressed thicker for a stronger longer lasting work chain.

Square grind and gullet has been cleaned out/removed with a round file.
Yes, you're being nit-picked...

Thanks for the clarifications. I was just about ready to go out and pop the cap on a cold one and get a new set of glasses. Lol

You need more hours sharpening still to understand this .

No, not really Brian. If I got a straight answer from the get go I would have been fine. Not my first rodeo.
I been around a little.

What i was trying to explain is you should not need an answer from someone else ,once you have enough hours behind a grinder and a file you can tell yourself ,
Advise tip of the day i live by i was told when i was racing mx .

You need to slow down to go fast

Think about that in day to day decisions .

Nope. just advanced the indexing pawl.
I don't change much from chain to chain.
Left the intersecting line a tick low hoping Charlie would notice a feed difference when he puts that one on.
