    I think it would be of benefit to explain angles, hook, etc. People need to understand how changes to the parameters changes the cutting characteristics of the chain.

    Yes my friend, if you make it we will watch. :popcorn::popcorn::popcorn:
    I sharpen my chains by hand and have for years, but I can always use pointers, never to old to learn. Thanks!!!

    I'd rather just ship you my chains like I did this morning :rofl: :lol:

    On a serious note, I'd enjoy a video and thread on the subject :drunk:

    I'm going to do a couple short videos and a lot of pics to go with the explanation of angles and a few other things.
