We have no set rate (yet,) which is why I am starting this discussion. The Echo HC-150/1500 blades can be bought for less than $30 a set RETAIL!, and there are very affordable aftermarket ones for the Stihl units. Heck, even the OEM ones are not that expensive for Stihl. We charge $65/hour at the shop and until now it has been straight time to sharpen. I am trying to get something set up here so we can set a price on hedge stuff (plus my own 3 sets are needing love....) I have not sharpened a set ever. There is one guy at the shop who has been doing it with a Dremel, and that is a joke. I WILL be getting a more substantial grinder this summer and it will probably be a USG. Just curious if the hedger deal will make me want to order it up sooner.
Great, now I'll need to order up a bunch of gearbox gaskets for the different hedgers. Yay.
