Get a hand file and guide, it takes only slightly more time than an electric sharpener, costs less and saves your chain. Oh, and you don't have to deal with idiots.

(70,504 posts)and have always done right by me. The guy who sharpens my chains does a great job.
If you make your living w/ tools like chain saws it helps to have all kinds of people who
can help you out.
Close to my shop/home ... they get my power tools ready to start and go to work for me
and that is a good thing. Politics can wait sometimes.

(34,857 posts)I was on a cruise and we were all waiting to enter the dining area. It was a bit backed up, so, the line zigzagged a bit toward the elevators. There was an older man, probably in his 70s, or 80s, who obviously was getting disgruntled. I get it. No one likes to wait. Anyway, i'm right behind him, and he turns around and tells me, and everyone listening, that this is all Obama's fault. I was like, "Wha?" and he started ranting and raving about Obama. It was embarrassing. Everyone felt awkward. His wife looked embarrassed. Then, he turned to a black couple and pointed at them yelling, "you're the reason he's president!"
The couple just stood there stunned. The doors opened and we all entered the diner without incident.
That's the mind of a Republican.
