That kind of grinder does work well but you need to get a decent model. They are in the $300ish area.

Unless the chain has been cutting staples or rocks, you should BARELY be grinding. That chick is workin' it too hard!! :smirk:

I'm no sharpening expert, but it does seem like she is grinding quite a bit. When I use my cheapo, all I do is kiss the chain then onto the next tooth.
Why wasn't she wearing the pink carharts for that?
Edit:OMG, I just noticed the video of her running the 880 while wearing them! Epic!

Check out Northern Tool, they have a $130 model that ain't horrible esp if you're not doing dozens of chains all the time.

That one looks to be a good model.
The one my friend has even the part that held the chain was plastic. There was no way you could be productive with it because you had to fiddle with the settings after each tooth and even still it was doing a poor job at sharpening.
