Great buy,

"Super simple to get up and get going. I put it on my wall instead of taking up space on my bench. Which always seems to have alot on it any way. Works great for all that I want to do. Before I had to take my chains 30 miles away then pay $6.00 a chain. The one thing I can tell you is be carefull who you tell that you have it because you'll be doing alot of your friends. Its paid for it self already well worth the money."

chain saw sharpener,
November 19, 2008
By analizer

"I own many different types of sharpners , I have even tried hardware stores that do chain saw sharpening. I have not been satisfied with the results. I cut about eight full cords of wood each year, and have chain saws that take diffent size chains. I was looking for a professional chain sharpener, that did not cost an arm and a leg. I bought this unit from the photo in Northern's catalog ,with input from their technical person. The unit was easy to assemble and set up to use. It comes with three different size grinding wheels too. I tried the first chain I sharpened and all I could say is wow! wow! It was like I had a new chain on the saw. Thank you Northern, for offering a great product at a price that can't be beat.."

chainsaw sharpener,
November 18, 2008
By furnaceman

"I recently purchased this item. Had no problems what-so-ever putting it together. I have used the clamp-on file guides and done it by hand, usually sooner than later I needed to take my chains to a professional. I cut 10-15 cords a year for use for myself and I know it will pay for itself this season by not having to continually take my chains somewhere else and wait for them to be done when they feel like it, not to mention now all the neighbors are bringing their chains to me to sharpened, and PAYING ME.
Instead of waiting and losing a day or two of cutting, within an hour I have three saws up and running again.
For the price of this unit, believe me...you can't go wrong. Simple to set up, and simple to use. the only thing better about cutting fire wood, is watching your wife cut it for you!
Buy it now."

So Far So Good,

"Have used this on 6 blades and have been very satisfied.
Not a complicated set up but agree the manual has very small print.
Mounts easily, runs smooth and sharpens chains efficiently - can't ask for much more"

versatile tool,
November 18, 2008
By dexter2
from georgia

"this product is very good. easy to use, self explanatory if you lose the directions, saves a whole lot of time versus hand filing and the edge is compatible to that of hand sharpening. First time testing how well it sharpened the chain, I was creating 1 inch curls and throwing them approx. 10 feet behind me. very satisfied."

chain saw sharpener,
November 18, 2008
By aceman332
from Farmington Utah

"After 25 years in the small engine repair service, my health forced me to sell my shop. I did not plan on doing anymore work but my friends and good people that i had done work for continued to bring there equipment to my home.
Some I had to turn away and others I did work for. I begin to get a lot of chain saw chains to sharpen. I knew that I needed a grinder. I did not want to spend a lot of money for one so I checked your book and found just what I needed. What an excellent buy. I have sharpened over 200 chains with the machine and it has not falter. I am now sharping chains from the shop that I once owned.
Thank you very much
Roger"

best fo the money,
November 18, 2008
By sonice

"I put away about 100 cords of wood a year and this chain sharpener is the only tool used to take care of about 20 chains. The greatest thing is that you are in control of angle's and depth of the sharpener. It has paid for it self time and time again. For the money this is the best thing I have ever purchased. There are more expencive machines out there but I don't believe any better."

Great Tool!!,
November 18, 2008
By regor
from Hallett, Oklahoma

"This sharpener is an invaluable tool!! The chain sled needed a little sanding in order to make angle modifications easier and more accurate but now works well. I had been paying $6 per chain for sharpening so will save that expense. After sharpening the first chain, I ran the saw for a day and a half and the chain still cuts like butter. I would recommend this sharpener to anyone who uses a saw for more than just trimming limbs occasionally."
