Square skip or racy full comp round?
but...but...I made a 3/8p skip chain (took all the links apart and put them back together as skip - I think it was 31 drivers) for an 8" Milwaukee bar that I put on a MS 170...I don't think that falls under "underpowered huskies and lazy operators"...skip chain is for underpowered huskies and lazy operators who cant sharpen lol

I can agree to that, would buy a 171 before being given a 170...but don't need either...going to get my 2100CD running and use it on everything!!the 170 is a husky in white and range
Let us know when you’re ready to take the training wheels off.Round! The little girls on a fourm that I used to belong to doubted my ability to do anything, including sharpening a chain. I get a better-than-factory edge using my Amish USG as pictured:

Ask anyone who uses one of these devices how good it is. I love this filing unit. It is about 4-5 pounds of solid steel with one or two brass and plastic bushings all made in Germany.Let us know when you’re ready to take the training wheels off.
IMHO, that tool is good for a beginner to learn the angles and depth. After understanding HOW to sharpen, you should be able to freehand file it just the same, and much faster.Ask anyone who uses one of these devices how good it is. I love this filing unit.
