Chain Saw Filing Guide WOODLOT EQUIPMENT Chain Saws 21-4-33 Bob Wooding, E. Greenbush, N.Y.: Bob says a farmer friend of his thinks the chain saw filing guide he made to clamp in his vise is the best thing since sliced bread.
"It's for æfreehand' filing and accommodates all sizes of chains and filing angle," he says. "You need two pieces of hardwood (the ones I used are 1-in. thick, 13-in. long and 3 and 1 3/4-in. wide), two 1/2 by 3-in. machine bolts, two 1/2-in. washers, and two 1/2-in. wing nuts. After clamping the pieces of wood together as one unit, drill holes as shown. Assemble both pieces and place masking tape on top as shown. Back off wing nuts enough to insert drive of chain in slot. Adjust the chain so cutters are spaced evenly across the bar. Make a pencil mark at cutter gullets, re-move chain and mark filing angles on masking tape (magic marker works fine). To use for different size chains or different filing angles, just put a clean piece of tape on and mark the new angle."
