funny thing is, and i know you guys aren't gonna like this. when it comes to the filing i agree. i don't agree that he is the best or that the 12v granberg is the way to go but there are very few who can actually file a chain right. angles all over the place. i know most here will say they can but 95% of people who say that actually can't. this is the internet. i'm not saying the guy is a pro at falling or has good techniques or anything. he looks like a hack BUT that makes him no different from any of you lol. so why all the **** talking? lol all i ever see from guys here are vids of cookie cutting or piss revving which takes no skill at all. most guys in the vids are in poor body positions like standing behind the saw rather then beside or holding saw out far away from body rather then close. body positioning is the most important thing. if you can't get that you won't be doing anything other then cutting cookies or firewood. guys aren't a professional until proven a hack, guys are a hack until proven professional. most will never get good enough to be considered an entry level professional. just because you are fascinated in saws and read alot here on AS does not mean you can walk the walk. a professional makes it look one heck of alot easier then it actually is. don't hate me cause you don't like the truth lol.
