Wranglerstar- “Simple enough for an east coast man”
(Puts it on backwards)
INDEED!
That’s funny!! 🤣
Yeah, but He was also backwards, working, thinking, and talking all at the same time, with cameras and equipment all around him. So.....
LOL
He said don’t quote me
All these years watching these videos I never needed this knowledge, but now I need a chainsaw and I'm grateful for the info. Got a Husky 445.
I've had mine for a couple years. I love it.
I replaced all my chains and stated using this sharpener to keep them consistent. No complaints
Makes sharpening in the field so much easier.
I know this is an older video but what can I say, I'm slow to view.
I have been heating with wood and cutting, feling trees for more than a decade now. Sharpening has always been my biggest adversary. Trying free-hand filing to several different file guide systems and even my own home made guides. I currently use the Stihl file all for ease of operation. But still it is keeping the continuous angle " the important part" that has always been my nemesis . The new to me guide you are using in this video is quite astonishing and Very accurate. I have not seen this tool before but it is quite amazing.
Although out of my price range I would surely have one of these devices. It was hard enough to spend what I did on the Stihl file all. You have done a great video on this product and convinced me to purchase one when the funds become available . Until then. I'm stuck on Stihl. 5/16 .325
Been using one of these for 5 or 6 yrs and very pleased with results. Very consistent and easy to use.
"Simple enough for an East Coast man", as he is installing it backwards.
Elmer Fudpucker well, that’s exactly the point! Simple enough for us E.C.’s, but those W.C. guys need their mamma to show them how to sharpen their saws right.
💪
Those left coast guys are such maroons!!!
He probably put that in there on purpose so that the East Coast guys wouldn’t feel so bad for making some of the mistakes they might make. But then they get cocky. LOL
Michael Sherman well, if read the instructions he could do it right the first time. Too bad those WC guys can’t read...
;)
Timothy Musson we don’t need no readin’! 😬
Loved the information you always provide. I have been running chainsaws since I was 16 years old cutting hardwoods in mountains cutting firewood and pulpwood and no matter how careful you are you are going to touch a ROCK so there you are with your file trying to put a edge back on . I have always tried to use a file guide of some sort but I will always sharpen one side more than the other one not that it cuts a circle but one side will have shorter teeth. I would really love to have one of those as my eye sight is not as good as it was these would be very helpful.
Thanks for all the good videos and may GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
This is a must have for anyone using a chainsaw. it looks to be fairly simple to use,and looks to be a quality tool. I have been viewing different videos about this tool and they all are praising this tool.I will obtain one soon!
A small tear fell seeing that chain going across the rock. - Aaron Birkeland
Mine was a large tear. That was a scary thing to witness.
Me too.
LOL!!! I know, right?? I think he does that on purpose just to see me cringe....
@@rnj1223a Advice , chainsaws are unforgiving , number one rule , when your saw is not being used Put your Chain Guard ON ! number two always have chainsaw gloves on every time you touch your baby, get it wrong and someone will have a big problem ! NEVER drop start your Saw ? There are only two ways to start your Saw ? Grip the between your knees ,or flat on ground with foot on pad in Handel ... Get someone to show you , if they say we don't do that ? .. say thanks and walk away !! And get professional advice and training , always remember , you must never say , l should have listened ? NEVER LOOK DOWN SAW BAR whilst Cutting .. If the chain hits metal in tree , old nail or barbwire , ... it will bounce the saw back on you , not good ? If you live you will have a big scar and babble like a baby ? ..
@@rnj1223a After sharping your Chain , Don't forget depth gauge , using flat file ?
Being a gear head I can appreciate the precision of a CNC made tool that’s also compact enough to carry into the woods with me.
I've been looking at one of these for several years. Thanks for doing the review. I have a similar unit that my dad bought back in the late 70's. He loved it. The only reason he stopped using it was because he wore out the cutter and couldn't find any more. Before Timberline introduced this tool, I had looked into having some cutters custom ground so I could start using it again, but the cost was too much. I'm going to purchase a couple of thier cutters and see if they will work with the tool I have. Worse case, I'll have to buy a Timberline, but I'll already have a couple of spare cutters ;)
FWIW, a file normally lasts me as long as 1 chain, but most of my saws are only running 18" bars with Still .325 full chisel chain. On my bigger saws, I jump straight to .404 chain and use a dremel with a stone. Stones don't last long.
What a great idea! Just what I have been looking for. Makes the job so much easier and precise. Great product!
My great grandfather was one of the last old growth hand “choppers” , my dad cut old growth too (32 foot on the stump redwood was his biggest ) and man my dad can sharpen a chain, I suck at it lol
Cool. You have a geat history.
I respect wranglerstar a lot he’s definitely a west coast guy
West coast is the only coast!
@@marktcso Sounds like something a west coast guy would say...
Whoa! this was a great vid on a great tool! thank you so much for doing this! I definitely need this! Dull chains do the majority of the accidental damage to humans, so something that standardizes the bite on a chain and makes it super sharp will scrub out nearly all the kickback even when using "extended techniques" is of supreme value to any and all chainsaw users. This is proper PPE in my opinion! Great stuff!
Looks like a very accurate sharpener and not having to turn it around to sharpen other direction is a real time saver. I like your videos. I'm so sorry for your loss of your father.
Keith
I winced when you ran across that rock! lol. I've hand sharpened my whole life with fair results. I like how consistent this tool is. It's like having a new chain every time. Sign me up!
Way to go Wranglerstar seems like they're taking chain sharpening up a notch with class. I would love to have one and since I'm from the "East Coast, I promise to read the instructions first ;)
I sharpen all my saws by hand. My friend just bought the Stihl 2 into 1 angled sharpener and he says it is better than the somewhat more complicated Timberline one. Coming from an old timer, using just a rat tail file, I'd love an opportunity to "one up" my buddy, the next time we go cutting. Great video on the Timberline sharpener.!
Thank you very much for the review. I was skeptical seeing this product advertised. I've followed you for years and respect your opinion. Thanks again and God bless you always!
Video idea: Making a leather sheath for the chainsaw sharpener.
Stripped Outdoors I was thinking the exact same thing, a leather sheath would be amazing for this little tool.
First thing that went through my head when he mentioned the case. Great minds think alike.
tig weld a belt clip?
Kenneth Raynor
I have had trouble sharpening for years this Timberline looks like the answer to my problem so simple
Recently my wife bought me a STLE chain saw and I came across your video on this tool you were using that I really liked. I sure would like to get my hands on one of them. PS I also loved the scripture at the end of the video very encouraging. Dave
I bought one of these after seeing your video. I get mixed results with it, one time very sharp the next so so. I have defaulted back to my cordless dremel with a stone which is thus far the quickest best way I've found. Thanks for the video.
That looks like an amazing sharpener. I could really use one of those I am starting small engine repair on the side and have about 20 chainsaws to sharpen.
I am a certified master watchmaker for 43 years now. I have watched several chainsaw sharpening videos. This to me is the best precision sharpening tool that I have ever seen for chainsaw sharpening. You not only have precision but consistency, with simplicity and full visual of what you are doing. I like the fact that the milling is a slow graduated mill to produce a smooth and sharp cut.
The consistency of cutting will take off minimal amount of material. Giving me longer use of my chains. This is the truth. I stopped at Ace hardware tonight after work and looked at the
Stihl 2 in 1 sharpener. It looks good, but it still is up to the person doing the sharpening. I told the man at Ace. I know what it’s like sharpening my set of small screwdrivers. The precision makes the difference. Then I come home and see this video. Wow ! You can’t make a mistake. This is the one !
Very well engineered product. I can’t wait to give it a try. Compact enough to take into the field for quick touchups or to use back in the shop on multiple chains. Eliminates the guesswork and like you said those fellas that think they can really sharpen a chain by hand, they’re only fooling themselves. I’m not gonna fool myself any longer. Can’t wait to purchase one. Thank you for the review.
I recently purchased my first chainsaw and need help using/maintaining it. Of course, within the first use the chain is need of sharpening as there was a bit of dirt with the roots the stump I had pulled out and was cutting to discard.
I was searching youtube on how best to sharpen the chain with best tool and technic. It looks like with this Timberline tool even a novice chainsaw man like myself cannot screw things up. Although, it is pricey but I think it will make up for with easier working ability.
Thank you so much for sharing. Also, clicked and subscribed for future educational videos. I still need help. 😁
Keep up the good work and God bless you all.🙏
Running the chain across that rock made me pucker up and wince.
This tool is awesome. What a precision job and I Love the consistency so you know that every tooth is sharpened exactly the same.
Thanks for the review. I bought one after watching your video. Simple to use. The middle plate just gives the chain some side support while you push the cutter through.
Wranglerstar has many great helpful videos and this one is no exception. I am usually very successful at sharpening all my chains, but I can see this device will sharpen them with precision. I need one!
So easy the West Coast guy puts it on backwards.
😂
Hahaha that's awesome! 🤣
I came to say the same thing! Lol
Best comment ever!!
That’s awesome. I work repairing tools part time and people also come and ask if we sharpen blades. I could recommend this product! Leo G (east coast) lol
Would love to see a side by side comparison with the Stihl sharpener.
The Stihl sharpener is so easy to use, really would like to see a comparison!
I was just sharpening my saws yesterday by hand. Rethinking how I've been doing it after watching you use this amazing tool. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us here on CZcams!
You won’t be calling it amazing once you’ve bought one. I have. Many regrets.
@@aliray1165 what’s wrong with it
I have never seen anything like this. I never had any luck with hand filing a chainsaw chain. This tool looks like a wondrous gamechanger. And I really like the fact of saving money of taking my chain to the local shore for sharpening ( $25.00 CAN ). And being out of work I need to save as much as I can. Tight budget. Thank you very much if I'm selected.
That looks like a cool product, well done Timberline.
Comparison time: Timberland Sharpener vs. Stihl All-in-One File vs. professionally sharpened on a grinder vs. brand new chain.
How long does each edge last?
Which is best in a field kit?
How long does each one take (including setup)?
How much attention do you have to pay to depth gauge on the chain?
Yes please
Depth guides are CRITICAL to cut performance and must be matched to each tooth. This is why Stihl tool is best for amateur user. Or the tool shown here plus a second step, depth guides using file guide.
Hand filing by a professional (not Wranglestar) is best of all for performance. But you need to be filing between tanks all day, keeping in exact touch with your chain and depth guides by feel. You need to perform hundreds or thousands of sharpens whilst getting paid per tree to get to this level.
I use hand filing or bench grinder, although my grinder is set up with non typical CBN grinding wheels which grind quicker and more importantly cooler than normal aluminium oxide wheels. Typically a shop or an impatient operator will overheat the chain teeth when using a chain grinder. Not ideal for multiple reasons but OK to some if carying spare chain and grinding regularly at home.
Best luck. Find worst tooth and clean both cutting edges, top plate and gullet (hook) to witness marks. Concentrate on evenness and every tooth the same.
Wranglerstar doesn't normally reply to comments. But it does help his income.
I second this
Just started with an ego 18" learning each step. Been looking at videos to learn. This would help start me on a great path if I could get one. Great Video ! !
Hey...thanks for the program. I received my Timberline three days ago. I'm 72 and have used many methods to keep my Stihls sharp. My eternal problem was keeping my angles consistent. I LOVE how this tool solves that problem for me. And the Carbide bits are excellent. My chains are easily kept razor-sharp. I am considering getting a little more power in something larger than my Stihl 180c. The ability to use any sized carbide bit in the tool will be handy when trying to maintain two saws, eh? Anyway...I love the Made-in-USA Timberline. Note...don't waste your time on the Amazon knockoffs--The bits are more like Dremel tips, the construction is inferior, and who knows where they are made.
Being fairly new with chainsaws, sharpening the chain is something I been researching alot here lately, wanting to be able to be consistent with sharpening the chain and to the best possible way i see that I've found the tool for the job. Hope to have the opportunity to work with it.
Love video very helpful, can I buy direct from timberline could you send me the link , I don't want to go to Amazon as their seems to be a lot of counterfeits.sean in Ireland.
The precision of this tool is quite impressive.
I’ve worked in forestry for years and hand sharpened saws for years. This looks like a great product would love to try it,
Easiest set up on a sharpener I’ve seen. I definitely will be saving to have this sharpener in my chainsaw tool kit.
Great work on making such a complexed sharpener into something so easy to use.
Is it better than the Stihl sharpener you loved so much? I noticed that this sharpener doesn't have anything for the depth gauge.
Good point
I love the stihl sharpener
you still have to buy a depth guage and do it by hand, hence why this sharpener stays in the shed and i take my Stihl 2 in 1 with me everywhere instead
Yep looks like a great tool especial when im out in the field i can sharpen right there. I would still bring an extra chain for grins.
Looks great! Can hardly wait to get one and try it. Been cutting for 50 plus have all the gadgets . Thanks !
Thats cool as hell! I was actually cutting a couple fallen trees up for my neighbor and had to sharpen twice due to catching the ground a bit. This looks perfect. Thanx for sharing.
I cut a lot of wood and I suck at sharpening. I go through a lot of chains because my consistency is bad. I get frustrated and just buy new ones. I think I may give one of these a try. Thanks for the informative video!
Yes been looking for a system like that! I have MS and have difficulty with fine motor control. I wish I had seen this before I bought my Stihl multi-file sharpener. However that mentioned I don't see that it reduces the rakers, the part of the chain that controls the depth of cut which you need to file as you sharpen the tooth.
Am thinking of perhaps using this for a few sharpenings then either the Stihl multi-file or have the shop do it to bring the depth in line, repeat, etc... with the objective of choosing a mid cost between hand filing and shop fees or an electric motor unit. Also, interested in time efficiency. Given that I'm not a skilled hand filer, does this make sense?
Been sharpening blades for a long while. I cannot wait to try this guy, looks like it will be a game changer for me.
This is by far the Best sharpener I have ever seen for a chainsaw blade thank you for this video going to order one today.
My family owns a Christmas tree farm this looks like a useful addition to the tool shed
When he says “ it’s so easy, even an east coast guy can use it” then he proceeds to put in on wrong 😂😂
he also said dont quote him on that lmao
I guess in not a smart guy living on east coast
As an East cost guy we have no need for fancy gadgets to sharpen a chainsaw, we know how to use a file.
My Uncle and Cousin, were "East Coast Men", who were "Lumberjacks, for close to 50 years for my Uncle and 45, for my cousin. Professional lumber men. They had to use files, in all of those years, not to mention repairing their own saws.
Very nice sharpening job, very pro quality!!!
I have looked at these online. This is a great demonstration. Looks like a great item to get all the saw teeth cutting the same. Thanks 👍
Looks like a wonderful tool simple and easy can't wait to try one.
The whole "East Coast vs. West Coast" bit has gotten kinda dull, almost as dull as someone from the West Coast...
It's a running joke, don't take it as anything more. But the west coast is lame.
Still waiting for the “mid-coast” to get a mention. (Michigan) lol
Never gets old...
If the shoe fits...
This guy is a moron thinks he is so much better then everyone else
I own the Stihl sharpener based on your recommendation. I'd love to try this one!
Really looks like a great tool, I would love to try one. As a novice, I don't get a good sharp chain and this would really help.
Looks like a really useful tool to add to a sawing arsenal. Thanks for the videos love them!
I'm a Northeast Coaster who would like to try this sharpener out.
Greetings and Merry Christmas from Calgary Canada. I just started watching your channel a short while ago. I liked all of what I've seen so far. This sharpener looks like the cats meow. The idea of it being small and non electric makes is ideal for the bush.
Keep up the great work. Philip
I have one and love it. I'll never go back to a file, this thing is precise and fast. Once I got use to setting it up I got faster every time. The precision is where it's at.
Really appreciate your videos and the character building references. I'm looking for a good sharpening system and your advice is extremely helpful.
I am looking forward to purchasing one of these even if I dont win it. I do a lot of volunteer timber work for local Boy Scout Camp and this would be amazing for field sharpenings.
Own a lot of Stihl saws and one husky saw. I use a hand file and touch up every once in a while with a bench sharpener. Would love bench quality sharp in the field!!!
I've never had to sharpen a chainsaw before. Purchased a stihl recently and used it a lot this year. Need to sharpen soon and the correct way. Would love to use one and tell others about it. Looks like a great product
I build my own log cabins and this looks like a great sharpening system, definitely trying it.
I had one of these and they do work good I gave it to a friend that couldn’t get the hang of a file. For me the file is faster and just as good
My father in law is one of those “I can sharpen a saw great by hand” fellas. Sure could use one of these👍
Seems to be very easy to use and setup. Thank you for taking the time to make the very informative video. Thank you and keep up the wonderful work.
seems like good tool to add to my other tools. chainsaw sharpening is always such a slow process but it is essential if you want to do a good job. i have four different chainsaws. this would come in handy. great video and very informative.
It’s not quite simple enough for a west coast man if he puts it on backwards
Looks like a good tool that I would use often.
Great video, I am new to sharpening chain saws. I dont really want to learn another new skill right now ,so this looks like it is for me. The looks of the shavings shows how well this product works.
Thanks Husqvarna 18" KC flashg
I really like this tool for it's accuracy and consistency. Great presentation. Jon
I'd like one for my 73 year old dad. Still heats his house in Saskatchewan on wood only.
If it’s easy enough for a west coaster, I would like it.
Amazing! Man I need one of these! I am literally going on the internet right now and buying one! I have some wood to cut next week and this will save me hours of time compared to using a file!
That is an awesome sharpener! Getting each tooth sharpened evenly and precisely is the most difficult task when sharpening your chain.
I could really use one of these!As I spend 30 to 40 mins sharpening my work saws. Awesome tool I'd really like to try out👍
I bought one and it only sharpened one side and that wasn’t easy. I hope it was user error but I went back to hand filing.
@@shawnmullinsoutdoors how much was it when you bought it? They like to hike the price if he gives good reviews.
@@BrokenAbyss about $120 but it’s not worth $1
If I remember right
@@shawnmullinsoutdoors d*mn dude, did you start with new chain? Or had you already sharpened it before?
Bought one and used it for about a year. Did not like it was awkward and did not seem to get it as sharp as I would like. I ended up getting the Pferd 2n1 system and am happy with that.
Wood-n-Yard Junkie yeah this seem a bit excessive for what it does. Those 2 in 1s are great because they do both teeth and rakers at once. It only takes a few minutes to go around an entire chain with no effort.
@@KingdomOfApple yes speed and efficiency is what I'm looking for. The only thing I do is take out the file for the rakers and use it only every 3rd sharpening. I find it takes the rakers down a tic too much. Makes the saw grabby in wood.
Looks like a great Sharpener! Getting the angles correct is always my problem. This device would definitely change that! Thanks for the video!
Nice looking tool as a rank newbie at saws and sharpening this looks a really handy little sharpener thanks for showing us its workings you are a gem of a man. Much love from the Highlands of Scotland
Nothing beats a round file and experience when sharpening a chain.
Except square ground chain that litterally cuts 25% faster than round file
True! But for the rest of us?
I agree. I enjoy hand sharpening a chainsaw. I would like to get a vise for when I am out and want to sharpen a chain.
Seems like a neat little sharper that’s definitely worth the value.
I live in Hurricane alley and this really looks to be the answer for easy and precise sharpener after a beat down of cutting oak and pine all day. I don’t think I ever sharpened a chain they didn’t pull. Looks to be a nice product. Thanks
Love it, this would make sharpening so much easier for us older folks!!!
Up next this year’s Best sharpener EVER - until next year
LOL........I was thinking the same. I wonder if he's giving up the Stihl one?
That’s for sure.
You realize next year is only 2 weeks away? lol
Isn't that the point of invention and innovation? If we aren't improving things and finding better things are we really bettering ourselves and our society?
I have seen these before. Just did not like the price.
That would be a perfect Christmas present for my dad.
I've been watching Dad sharpen chains for years,and struggle. Wow! Is all I can say. I'd love to get one for my 80 year old,still cutting his wood 👨Dad
I just bought one haven't used it yet but I'm noticing it really Mars up the paint on the bar. I like the fact that it gets it Sharp without taking much metal out of the teeth of the chain.
Looks like an interesting quality sharpening tool. I've been hand sharpening for fifty years so I'm stubborn when it comes to using a device. In my early days, I did use a gig every other sharpening to keep the proper angle and like most things in life, the more you do the better you get at it. Over the years, I found that many people don't understand that the rakers control how much wood the cutters take and some never even file them down. Some take the rakers way down and a jumping saw is dangerous for most sawyers to handle. Some file off too much cutter on one side so the saw cuts in circles. I always sharpen my weak side first or take more licks on weak side than my strong arm side. A lot of choppers file chisel chain too deep in the gullet instead of the top of cutter. Making sure the leading edge is sharp is important and once you dull the leading edge your performance drops because that's the first part of the cutter that touches the wood. This is my first chainsaw clip of yours that I've watched so I'm sure your other chainsaw videos explain all this. Be Safe!
Yes, he didn't mention anything about the rakers and apparently that tool doesn't handle that
Funny, I just saw your 28 oct 2017 'Best Chainsaw Sharpener Ever - FINALLY!!! video and now this one.
I am pretty much self taught, and I never knew that about sharpening at different angles causing the bucking I thought I was just trying to go too fast. Thank you for the knowledge and I love the little jig I’m gonna get one
The Timberline sharpener looks awesome, you could use it anywhere. can't wait to try one!
I almost bought this 2 years ago but you talked me into the Granberg.
“Simple enough for an east coast man” 0.16
“Oh I’ve got this on backwards” 3.30
Congratulations you played yourself
i think we can assume he left it in on purpose.
Apparently not simple enough for a east coast man
Bought. One a couple years back. Best chainsaw sharpener I’ve ever owned. Hands down.
You did a extreamly good job at this video !!! I want one of these. I only heat with wood in my house mainly because i cant aford gas to heat with but love wood heat !! Very good job on the video !! Thank you !! Kyle
