    Not a fan of this guide. I bought it to improve my sharpening repeatability but the latest version I think just plain sux. Anyone wanting to try it, holler and it is yours.

    I will go back to hand sharpening.

    Hey cnice37, does this sharpener help speed up the sharpening procces, or do you think it slows you down.... I use the stihl file guide and have good results....

    It slows me down versus free hand

    The extra time is worth it for me cause they really are a lot sharper than what I was achieving by hand. Though I'd probably be a little better at it now after using the jig for a while.

    Can't beat the price! Best of luck to you and the new owner!

    X2 for me ,I get a really sharp chain with it. 10 degree tilt makes a difference
