New chain sharpening tool

[BobL]

Them's BIG offsets! Some of my chains are not even 50" long!!!

Maybe its not a 'mercian thing but here and I believe it's a UK thing as well, we represent "thou" as three apostrophes or [ "' ]

**TRIGGER WARNING*** some of the guys who frequent the Political / Religious Views thread will freak out at the word 'Progressive'!!!

Thanks for the warning.

Good to know! Easy to confuse with 'our' system.
Had teachers who would insisted we use the zero before the decimal 0.025 to avoid confusion; think that in some places they use a comma (,) instead of a period (.)?

I was one of those teachers - but I'm also old enough to know the non-metric/english system which is where the thou comes from

that's a great thread that can benefit anyone who wants fast cutting chains, no matter if you use a grinder, file or whatever. Thanks BobL
