I can not remember which thread I promised to show this in so I will start a new one. I have found that needle nose vice grips works best. I have tried micrometers and calipers and a few other methods but this works best for me. Please whatch and share your methods . Also please leave a like and comment on the vid if you would.
Efficiency and if they're to far off from side to side it can make a crooked cut. As the cutter is filed away it changes the attack angle from the depth gauge. Thus makeing each cutter bite a different amount if the gauges are all set to the same height like .025. Using a progressive guide to set them makes this problem go away mostly.
Thanks for sharing Corey. I use a set of mics to measure mine. I sharpen with a grinder now so I only check 2 on each side as I am setting it up.
A quick ,simple way is to hold a left and right cutter back to back . If you can see an obvious difference in length ,make some adjustments .
Yes this is the way I do it, I have never used calipers or anything else....it's super simple and keeps the saw cutting straight!!!
It's not mine but I saw it somewhere on here or another forum? But use a Cresent wrench. Sharpen one side. Set the mouth of the wrench to that size of the cutter and then put it on the other and cut it back to size. I also use a grinder so once set there all going to be the same
And yea if there different lengths the saw will try to cut circles. At worse it can actually start binding in cut
