Been doing alot of land clearing and cutting down walnut tree that fell onto our barn couple of weeks ago. Lot of hard cutting, sandy, dirty wood, lots of stump cutting in the dirt, etc.... just generally hard use on the saws.
As a result I've run through 4 chains on two different saws.
I'm able to get replacement Oregon Speedcut chains for around $12 a piece.
Is it worth sharpening those and future chains, or just run and toss?
If they are worth sharpening, does anyone know of a good place to have them sharpened around Sanford? I've looked at a couple of online sharpening services, but don't think I'd see a cost benefit until I get probably 4-6 more chains to make shipping and the cost worth it.
No, I'm not interested in sharpening them myself.
