Let's get stoned !

[Madsaw]

Well when reading some of the posts about race chains. I see some mention stoning the chain. I was wonder what kind of stone is used. Here is a pic of a nice little one I found in a old tool and die shop. I have heard on here Nortons are the stones to get too. Could someone explain a little on stoning a chain.
Thanks much
Bob

Stoning a chain
1) Get a qt canning jar
2) fill half way with some Mendocina Valley buds about the size of your thumb. NY Deisel or any Holland bud can be substituted in a "pinch".
3) Insert chain and close lid. (No, you wont have to make the "lid" pop.)

Normally performed on weekends.

Hey Bugfart, you seem way to comfortable with some of the terminology to be just a casual observer. :Eye: :Eye:

I would guess that's some dated terminology tho.
But why change the name of an outdated saw?
