Are some of the hand sharpening kits better than others? I've tried the electric and while that's great in the garage, I'm not opposed to doing it by hand when sitting on the cabin porch in the mountains - I have the time!
I looked online and there seem to be more than a couple of options. Do I just head to the local Stihl dealer and buy the one they offer or is there something in particular I should be looking for?
Buy the stihl.
I've had the Stihl kit for at least 10 years , you won't be sorry.
Just back from the local dealer with the Stihl kit, one of the employees gave me a five minute tutorial...this doesn't appear to be overly difficult [Beer]
Did you go to Earl's? Was Miss Warmth and Personality there? The techs that work there are great. The lady who runs the place isn't.
I have a Husky kit from McGuckin's. It works well. If I had it to do again, I but the Stihl.
Yeah, went to Earls. "Bill" from the back came out and showed me how to use the thing. I contemplated stopping in at ACE in Ned on Sunday for the same purpose but needed to get back down the hill to mow my lawn.Quote:

If you're in Ned tomorrow afternoon (after 3:00), shoot me a PM. Maybe we can grab a beer.
PM sent, let's do that.Quote:
