Thats a very good video, Thank you. I see that some people file from the top down like in the video. I have also seen it done from the bottom up....
Thank you, very much. I will look forward to receiving it. Thanks for your help.
Ok, well that's not good.
Yep, that is the result I was after, but didn't have much success at achieving it. I may not have been holding the file at the right angle.
Ok, I wasn't aware of that, about Ironhorse, although I did notice a thing or two on some other videos of his that I wondered about, some.
huskihl, No problem, just now getting back on here. Yes, I would like to have a loop to look at. PM me with a cost. Thank you.
I thought that was probably the case. I am not going to cut the rest of this tree down but I have another one, dead standing, I think, which I...

I got this tree out in my field, and I don't really want to cut it down, but it had a large broken limb hanging down on it, and I cut that up into...
So, I have ran over 3 tanks of gas through it with this chain and bar. enough to draw the conclusion that I like it pretty good. I am tempted to...
I sharpened my chain, last night, when I got back to my shop. I took it back out and finished cutting up the Osage Orange, and done some splitting...
Well, it's a novel idea, anyway. I guess if one has an old chain to sacrifice to the experiment and time to fool with it, won't hurt to try it....
Yes sir, I have done that a time or two. Raker height is so important, I always pay close attention to mine, after a lesson or two.
