How to square file

[old guy]

Ok, I'm seeing how you call that a top beak.

I like 3 degrees forward lean or so. I want it to feed with takers at .025" or less

Found another pic with some steep angles, it actually holds up well. Even in hardwood

I'm not knocking your work. Seems like your top plate would be extremely fragile and flake apart. Intersecting line is going to the inside of the cutter

This was filed about a year ago, it held up well cutting walnut, elm, and oak.

You are right it looks fragile, but it wasn't bad. I was touching the chain up every tank just for the practice.

Ive filed a lot of chain away just to be filing.
I still file one everytime I run it just to practice.
