Hello experts,
I normally use all round ground chains & have ended up with some square ground chains. I'm in a bind now as I need to finish a chainsaw milling project for some shelving.
I must have misunderstood the shop when ordering over the phone, but I know I told them I would need to round file to sharpen.
My question is: after I use this chain to rip a few slabs & it needs sharpened, do I try & reshape to round with a handfile or my timberline? Or will it need to be round ground with a grinder first?
Im in Washington state so most businesses are still closed down.
