No matter how many videos I watch or things I read online, I suck at this. I use the file and the little tool with the rollers on it. Its fine for a few logs, then it stops cutting well. I'll sharpen, works for a little bit, then starts curving to a side. Trim down the rakers(?) and works for a little while then I need to sharpen again. I figure I just need a bit more practice with it. Just bucking up some hard wood with a Husky 450. Not hitting dirt or anything. Have the logs pinched in the backhoe thumb off the ground.
There's a million tools available to do this. Are they all pretty much gimmicks? Is a round file going to be the best at this? Or are there actually a kit that makes this better?
Thanks.
