Inexpensive sharpener

[slingshot]

Has anyone tried the chain sharpener sold by Harbor Freight. I know you "get what you pay for" and so forth. But for 40.00 its dirt cheap for an electric sharpener. Need to know if anyone has actually tried one and what all the shortcomings might be...

I ordered one two weeks ago and still have not received it. The items I ordered from Bailey's the same night showed up within 3 days A friend of mine said that it works alright but that he still rather hand file. Hopefully I'll know here soon.

i got one from cummings tools ( samething) and it works just fine....it you want to sharpen anything bigger than .325 you'll have to get a 3/16 wheel...cutter's choice has them

I like mine. It takes a little getting use to.
