I need help in choosing an electric bench grinder. I am newer to wood cutting, but would like to sharpen my chains and a couple friends chains. I would like it to be easy to use. Are there videos out there with proper sharpening techniques? I have looked at Efco,Maxx, Oregon, and Tecomec. It is confusing and would like some help. Thanks much
What grinder to buy??

I just got my new Oregon 511AX yesterday. Sharpened 10 chains today. Love it. Easier to use than the 511A.

i have the northern tool one. If i were doing it again and had a lot of chains to do I would get one with the self clamping feature.

the northern grinder--with the two shim mods--makes it a very good grinder. just keep a calipers handy so you get the cutters the same length-works great for 100 smacks--
