    Default Sharpening mill chains

    I have an Alaskan saw that I use a 3/8 mill chain on. I’m trying to find the angles to sharpen the teeth and also some information on managing the rakers. My simple research indicates that managing the rakers can be just as important as sharpening the teeth.
    I’d appreciate any help/information on these topics.

    Suggest this thread CS Milling 101, Hints tips and tricks | Arborist, Chainsaw & Tree Work Forum

    And for an extra geeky look at raker setups in the "hot saws" forums try this
    Are FOP really progressive depth raker generators? | Arborist, Chainsaw & Tree Work Forum

    Starts off talking about File-o-plate raker guides but further in its really about how to set up rakers for fastest milling that let for the entire life of a chain.
