Do you FOP guys only use the FOP on Carlton chain? Will they work on Stihl or Oregon chain?

Even more important the http://www.baileysonline.com/itemdetail.asp?item=15200&catID=9958 now has a neat little video of setting up the Granberg - which I find extremely useful.The Baileys web site lists compatable chains for the FOP, so I have just used my FOP on those chains. I think they will work on the other chains (Oregon, Stihl), but not an exact fit.
I use a Granberg and get great results. It is not fast, though. If you are careless or cutting dirty wood and need to sharpen a lot then it will be time consuming.
I recommend lubing the slide rod with anti-seize to minimize wear of the bushings. Plus anti-seize always means filthy hands so you can be sure you'll look like you've been doing something other than picking your nose.
