Been eyeballing this machine for a while and thinking of picking one up. Anybody ever use one?? Are they worth the money?? How hard is it to set up from one chain to the next?? How long does it take to grind a typical chain... say 72 links, from start (set-up) to finish?? What about switching from say 3/8's low-pro to regular 3/8's?.... seems like a lot of set up time to switch??
Looking at the "how to" page on a popular site makes it seem like it's a pain to set up. Being able to actually grind the rakers in a few seconds isn't going to save any time if it takes two minutes to set it up to grind a chain.
Just looking for some input from someone whose used this thing??
(Yes I know you can file the rakers by hand... been doing it for years)
(Yes I know you would have to grind a lot of chain to make it worth the expense... but that’s kinda the idea)
