Very nice , and end feature is works well for doing square chain .

I see Mr. @Squareground3691 has the big varsity player.

Mine is only in junior high, but Mike told me that if I feed it enough chains it will some day grow and play in the big leagues.

They are pretty sweet, I like the end feature on the full length one for square filing

Looks like a great addition to my saw tools, any in stock?

Mine arrived yesterday. Packaged very well and top notch machining. Trying to decide what to coat it with to protect it from the humidity here...

I just wipe mine down with WD-40 it repels moisture, or go big get it powder coated,

I had a friend of mine paint it with industrial epoxy paint. Probably silly, but it's more protected and easily touched up.

I need one of these, but I don't have a place to mount a vice

Could mount it directly to a workbench, with a little over hang , if you had one ,

You can mount a vice in your truck trailer hitch. Harbor Freight has everything you need. That way, you can keep everything in your truck toolbox if you choose.

I have the Jr High version. It works very well and is exremely well made.

Why bother

 

[jakethesnake]

Why bother

To be fair mine rusted up pretty good from leaving in truck bed

 

[Philbert]

I’d paint it bright yellow, so less likely to be lft behind.

Or, orange, for you STIHL guys!

Why bother

It’s got too many fiddly nuts and bolts for you anyway. Not enough Easy Button

And if you feed the Jr. Version enough chains, it will grow into a varsity player.

These small ones clear my vise nicely, and everything is out of the way on the left hand for some fine square cut filing.

Very minor modification for my set up.

Paste wax works pretty good for rust proofing if you like the bare metal look as I do.

And your favorite part is wiping the wax off?
