Definitely, the jigs work really well. This video was made before I figured out how fast the cbn cuts. The pink wheels are not really for heavily transforming the tooth. Kind of figured that out later. The vitrified wheel and the CBN are much faster.

Thank you my friend. Can't wait to see you putting some trees down. Reach out if you need anything.

Really good to hear Donald! Thank you for the positive feedback.

I mean no offense or jest, but first thing you do is take out any stops, no need for stops, you grind until you get the top and side cutter plates sharp and the point just right. You don't grind until some bolt stops you while the cutter hasn't been ground anywhere close to the right profile or sharp. The ONLY conceivable reason for a stop would be to get equal length on all the cutters, which again, doesn't matter, all you're doing is hogging out lots of material over-all from a chain, severely reducing it's service life, a chain cuts just fine with missing cutters.

You are welcome my friend! I was in the same boat so I'm happy to help. We're working on an all aluminum model that will lower the price a bit more. It would still be 100% Made in USA and very high quality. We're currently doing durability testing to see if it will hold up well. If it is tough enough it may be the way to go. I'll post some videos if we decide to offer them.

Cheers D-rail!

I’ll second the USG square grind jig

Thank you James.

Right on, thanks Casey. Yeah, the Simington grinders are great. The blue wheels make a nice finish. I've heard the salmon colored wheels are good too but I haven't used one yet. My guess is they are a coarser wheel. The universal grinders have a bunch of different wheels and grit available as well. Anyway happy cutting my friend.

Hi Bill, Thanks. Yes, I think you have it down. It does seem like the top plate angles don't translate to exactly the same as the round grinder. They may be off some degrees. Setting the dial to zero or close to zero will set your ripping cutters. It will cut flat into the bottom of the kerf. For cross cut, you can run them at a steeper angle. Putting an angle on the top plate makes the outside of the top plate taller than the inside. It cuts into the bottom of the kerf with an inverse "V" shape. I hear this make nice strait cuts when cross cutting.

Hi Jerr, You can remove 5 more degrees from each side of the wheel. So it would be removing 27.5 total. or set to 62.5 on the tilt. Yes, this is an Oregon 410-120 with 5.75'' wheel.

Ghost, thank you. We haven't tested that one yet. We will be testing more models soon. The main features that are needed are the 10 degree tilt and the manual clamp. I can reach out to you once we do our testing if you like.

​@@squarejig I see that it won't work with the Tecomec Super Jolly grinder we have...😢...

@@t.jeffveal-goattownfirewood Hi Jeff, I think hydraulics don't have a manual function but there are manual 10 degree tilt vises available. The Tecomec FL136 has the same base as the Oregon 410-120. I think the 10 degree tilt vises might fit on the SuperJolly. I can let you know for sure when I find out if you're interested.

Thanks! www.ketten-schaerfen.de for most of Europe and Squarejig.com for everywhere else.

Yes. The Squarejig clamps in and adds the square grinding feature.

Hi Jon, they almost work but there are modifications required on the USG.

What kind of changes on the Stihl grinder ? And is it worth it ?

Yes, we will offer individual holders for sale.

@@squarejig Thank you

@@williamwallace9620 Hi William, Let me check the website and see what's going on.

@@williamwallace9620 Awesome. I know I need to get the website updated. It's not as user friendly as it could be. The 1.5" clamp fits the 40 degree holders and the 2" clamps fit the 45 and 50 degree holders.

@@williamwallace9620 You can use a 40 with a 2" base. It just doesn't look as nice.

Hi Michael, It's possible but it is too wide to be double beveled. The 3/16th wheel has to be dressed only on one side for it to work. The single bevel requires the wheel to be flipped over to cut the other side of the chain. The main issue is that the wheel becomes slightly off in the arbor every time the wheel is removed. The elliptical shape will create an unwanted vibration and may require redressing every time the wheel is flipped. I'd only do this if I was in a MacGyver situation. Hope this help my friend.

Thank you. I just ordered the 45 degree kit yesterday. I bought the Oregon grinder, but the 1/8 wheel came damaged. I’ll have to get a new wheel. I’m looking forward to using it

@@michaellineberger6504 Right on! Let me know how it goes. If you need any help, feel free to reach out to me any time.

@@michaellineberger6504 Dang yeah I've broken the 1/8th inch wheels too. I know Tecomec has a white and green wheel I'd like to test out. I think a video on testing all the grinding wheels is in the works soon. Molemab I think makes them too. I've had pretty good luck with the pink wheels. I hear the salmon colored wheels are supposed to be great but I haven't found them in 5.75 inch. Also Congrats on the new 45 degree kit. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or need some tips and tricks.

Hello, good to hear from you in Sweden! Its possible but takes a lot of extra time. The thin wheels are still a bit too wide. It was easier to convert bar and sprocket to 3/8

@@squarejig Thanks for the info. Will this jig work on the 520-120 too?

Thanks coolestguy ontheplanet! Much appreciated.

We have an aluminum version that is almost done. It will be lower in price.
