Does anyone out there know how to "straighten" the cut of a hand sharpened chain? After a few resharpens, my chains always end up veering to the right. I try to remove metal evenly, and I can't see any differences between sides, but I can't figure out whether I need to grind less on one side or more on the other. I don't know it's a right handed/left handed thing, or if the 'second' side I sharpen gets less because I get tired. Is it the blades or depth gauge that cause this or perhaps both?
I've tried intentionally sharpening only one side, and only filing off the depth gauge on one side, but since I'm not sure what the exact cause is, this trial and error approach is getting me nowhere.
