Fairly simple. The chain sits in a grove and the motor pivots down to the chain. Don't hold it there to long, as the heat will kill the teeth. You can also cut down the rakes with it.Tired of buying new chains.
Horrible and too lazy manually use a hand file.
So just got this bad boy.

Tips and tricks on how to set it up and use this thing are welcome.
Where do y’all get your carbide 10” table saw and 12” miter saw blades sharpened? I have over 20 high quality blades that need sharpened.
My 7-1/4” circular saw blades I just throw away and replace. My 10” and 12” blades are too high end to throw away.
We've used these guys in the past.Forrest

before used to have an old guy in Riverside that did them...he passed away and no one took over his business. shame. was really good at it.
Forrest is in NNJ iirc. I had to ship one of their blades back to them once.Where do y’all get your carbide 10” table saw and 12” miter saw blades sharpened? I have over 20 high quality blades that need sharpened.

I use Sharp Rite in Middlesex, but it's a bit of a haul for you unless you want to ship them.
Forrest did an amazing job on a bunch of blades my friend sent in. Snuck a 96T 12" and had a CMT blade into his order sharpened. Both cut better than a brand new (we tested). The forrest blade grew legs not long after. fucking scumbags.
Nice to see people talking about quality blades. Full kerf is the way to go for finish work. Last year I was doing stain grade white oak. The other guy on the job was using his saw and I was using mine. He couldn't figure out why his 45's on both miter and bevel just weren't tight. He checked his saw for true about 3 times. I just kept cutting and laughing. He finally came over and asked me to check his saw. I took out his Diablo blade and put in my spare Freud. One cut later and his mind was expanded. lol
For stain grade finish there are two that I use. Forest and Freud. Freud is a little bit better but you've got to be super anal to notice. lol
On another note, I hate mud and tape. I'm actually looking forward to painting which I also hate. Hoping to have the cabinets in by early next week.
Anything on the job hunt or you just collecting unemployment and kicking it still?
Fucking worst..All I need to do is finish the fucking drywall mud and tape. Did I mention I hate that shit?
Try cutting large handrails in red oak/white oak/brazilian cherry/etc.Nice to see people talking about quality blades. Full kerf is the way to go for finish work.

I wouldn’t be afraid of any of the Kleins from HD. Durable case. I have a Fluke 87, but I had money to spend at the time.
