Stihl FG3 File guide

[Big Woody]

Was wondering if anyone had used the Stihl FG3 bar mount file guide. Its $110 retail but looks pretty heavy built. Its in the current catalogue.

Was wondering if it was really worth the big dollar outlay as compared to the cheaper Tecomec models.

The boneheads on ebay are paying $85 and with shipping ($15) its only 10 to 15 more to get it from the dealer at full retail. If anyone has one or a cheaper source I'd be interested.

If I was you, just practise with a simple hand file guide. I owned an Oregon guide for years, and wasted more time setting it up than filing by hand.
