Chainsaw Sharpening Hacks for Quicker, Cleaner Cuts - the Stihl USG Chainsaw Sharpener

The Stihl USG Chainsaw Sharpener is the best I've used. I still hand file as well, but I'm nothing beats this tool for fixing rocked teeth or zero timing a chain to good as new.
I'm Robert Milton, a professional sawmiller and business owner and teach sawmill tips and tricks to make your lumber as good as ours at Hobby Hardwood Alabama - ranked as producing the highest quality wood in Alabama, if not the country. / @hobbyhardwoodalabama . I am a retired aerospace engineer, my wife is a retired engineer at NASA, and we are a multimillion dollar, Dunn and Bradstreet listed, A+ rated BBB business. We used to build very high end houses and furniture using our lumber, but now sell it retail all over the country, and teach others to do the same.
We started with a chainsaw mill, upgraded to a portable manaul sawmill, then a production bandsaw mill. We are not a video company, but we are a real lumber company, and want to show others some of our money making and business sawmill techniques. This video is another example of sawmilling for our business, Hobby Hardwood, Alabama. We show how we mill logs, dry them and other things on our outdoor farm.

    My first “real” job was as a logger so I did a lot of hand filing. Still file all my chains, even on my 5 foot Alaska mill ( rarely used these days) I think you mentioned you also sharpen your sawmill blades, I’d be interested to see your solution for that also.

    Mr. Milton, I purchased an LT40 a few months ago and I appreciate the information you provide. I'll certainly benefit from your willingness to share what you've learned. Thank you!

    west coast saw has some fun goodies for the 500, if your going to be spending a lot of time behind that grinder you may want to look into a diamond wheel for that badboy.

    Great video, I would add to remind people to wear eye protection. I personal made the mistake once of not using eye protection and ended up with a trip to the eye doctor.

    I saw the 2n1 stihl on your bench, but you didn't say anything about it. I use it exclusively. So fast and easy and sharp like new. Glad to see your hair. Jealous, and I'm 52 and thinning on top. Brad_bb

    Hi Robert, Thanks so much for your sawing videos and especially for this chain sharpening video. Can you tell me what kind of grinding wheel you're using with the Stihl USG grinder, and where you get your grinding wheels?

  • @James.......
    @James.......

    Are you running a CBN wheel on there? That's what I run on my Oregon grinder and I love it.

    Does the motor on that sharpener have a fwd/rev function? The single position grinders put a small burr on the tooth if you can't reverse the direction of the wheel.

    Do you use the same angles on Full chisel and simi chisel? Super and Micro chains if you will. 40/30/15?
