    Just wondering how long it would take to sharpen say a 72 link chain on an electric sharpener?

    I have one but never used it as I heard they fuk the chains

    I reckon I can do a chain in 15min including the rakers with a hand file give or take

    Nah mate it is a more aggressive cut. Definitely not for ripping.
    It's a cross cut grind and will be fast!! Very difficult to file though and will lose its edge quickly. Much more popular in forestry workers.

    I find it takes longer on the electric grinder than it does by hand, but I am still learning with the grinder. I only bought it to repair very damaged chains which would take hours with a file.

    Bit the bullet and bought this welder today. I am sure it will deliver all I want to use it for, and give me some flexibility with the TIG function.

    Was trying to buy local however the local Total tools had sold out at this same price and the next ones in were with a price rise, so ordered the last 'cheapest' unit on ebay. Happy days, can now finish the chassis stiffeners to my satisfaction and also weld in the apring tower braces i have had for some time

    I would say its quicker for me, and I have typically used the hand file with the precision slide set-up to get tooth length consistent, but admit I have not factored in the raker height adjustment - just straight out tooth grinding. I accumulate all my chains and do 10+ at a sitting. For me, after also checking the bar lands for same heights - Volorb? have a great hand tool to sort that out, I get a great straight cut and the chains last longer. I am still on the original grinding wheel as well.

    I’ve had one of these for at least 40 years, still going strong but doesn’t get much use now.

    I reckon these are a great 'out the bush touch up device'. I have the same one but doesn't get much use now - I carry multiple chains now and simple use the grinder when I get home.

    Have kept one of those rippers in my kit also for some 25+ years stihl going strong too Jack Mate!
    Won’t disagree that hand filing/sharpening freehand is by far the best outcome and therapeutic found when time permits :-)
    Our elecy spinners are fantastic though for a super quick licking when time poor but can overheat steel if too heavy handed.
    Fastest way on our block resting saws I know of on my bullbar next to the battery buzzing out an accidental staple/wire spark encounter too :-)

    Interesting. On a saw blade a straight cut tooth (chisel tooth) is for ripping along the grain. The angle cut tooth is designed to slice the grain and cut. Effective cross cut. A straight chisel cut blade doesn't slice the grain in front of the cut.

    So the straight cut blade cuts faster on a chainsaw? What tooth design is used for slabbing?
