Chain saw sharpener

The chain sits in the 2 piece diagonal chrome mount.

Set the mount to the correct angle (30 degrees here).

The chain is lined up using an arm that flips down behind the tooth. The arm can be adjusted so that the chain is in the correct place for the disc.

The action of bringing the sharpening disc down clamps the chain in position and as long as you have set the angle correctly, it sharpens the teeth one at a time.

After all the teeth that point in one direction are done, the mount is turned to the angle to do the teeth that point the other way.

A 36 tooth chain takes (me) about 20 minutes, but I expect I will get faster.
