Thanks. Guys im hoping this helps my arthritis in my hands.I have to do a whole lot of filing from time to time.im trying out the new stihl sharpeners.seems to help some of the stress.much better than those little file handles. I dont see much stress at with this setup.

i bought my timberline sharpener about 2 month's ago.....love it!! the only issue i had with it was the absence of a second chain guide clip to help hold the chain tooth
perfectly vertical.......the carbide cutter's the way they are designed pull the chain tooth towards the carbide cutter and the tooth wind's up being tipped....the way i resolved this was by adding another guide clip...work's perfect now.......... the teeth are held in the exact same position every time

Philbert,
I picked one up off a member a few weeks ago. Also have a CBN wheel. Let me know if/when you wanna borrow them for a side by side by side comparison maybe with a hand file or so.
I say we get one chain and use several different tools on it and see what does what better

Got a pic your mod ? Sounds interesting, just dont see how you did it

here are some pic's......it wasn't an easy 5 minute fix......some machining involved......i am fortunate to have a mill and a lathe.....the hardest part is the groove for the clip to sit in....that had to be done by hand with a file.... pic's aren't great but it'll give you the idea

Great photos. Respectfuly, almost no one will see them as they are listed in the 'for sale' part of the forum, and marked 'sold'.

Please consider posting them in this thread, which duscusses the Timberline specifically. It would be helpful for others interested in this product.
