Always informative no matter the subject, nice shop, truck, old saws, new saws, chains and bars. I learn more by watching Westcoast Saw than any other channel around. Female Loggers are top notch, little smoke jumper gal come out black as soot every time, I watch the way they study trees. You and Anton way back in tall timber, priceless.
I have spent an absurd number of hours on that grinder, I have another in the attic for a spare, I use a profiled CBN wheel on ours. Your not kidding about the fiddly adjustments. Every time I try to get it to be repeatable Left vs right I’ve chased my ass to get it back again!! I also use a BELL belt driven round grinder every day! Now give us a lesson on a “Bar Shop” I have 2 of those as well. Thanks for everything you do Gordy and Lauren!
I definitely want to look into building a chain grinder. I work with a couple old toolmakers that would be infinitely helpful designing the mechanisms. Im a cnc guy that uses technology but these older toolmakers had to use all sorts of jig grinders and setups just like that years ago to make cutters and things. They are much more skilled than i am in my opinion. Technology and software are great, and it takes some skill and knowledge to program but these guys are truly skilled at what they do. Ill pick their brains and see if we cant build a grinder.
Thanks for reviewing the Bell K-6 Gordy. The build quality of this machine is amazing! I would love to own one. It is unfortunate how rare they are. I may have to build one like it.
Dang, that machine is slicker than snot! "drink holder", now you're talking Gordy, good idea for a future video you can do, lol Marker trick, now that is a trick of the trade, nice trick to show us. And I thought my Timberline was slick and easy, but your Bell is slick, quick and easy!
Question for u I bought a simington swing arm grinder from a guy who only had abd used it for a couple years and I'm thinking about selling it but was just curious what there going for
Was it part of the Bell Saw Company? If so they were bought put by TimberKing. Wonder how many of these older sharpeners are sitting around and no one knows what they are. Just grandpa's old junk.

These videos are absolute gold. Thanks for sharing
2:42 definitely a better grinder than all the Silvey chain grinders! Pretty convenient for a quick chain sharpening!
That bell grinder is amazing
I like the way that is built.
Really nice to see, never ever heard of this grinder before
That's a badass grinder!
I enjoy watching you enjoy your tools. Are you Stihl making the clutch cover for Husky 592?

When will the Oregon grinder be previewed.🤔
Maybe safety glasses. Awesome demo ! !
Never heard or seen off those grinders, and that thing is cool! They all have shit good and bad, but that sucker is neat
a simington grinder preveiw next?
Hey Gordy! Is there a bark box for the Stihl ms 261? If not will there be one?
is the motor reversable so you can keep the bur on the same side of the cutter? im sure an electricial can set that up for you
Nice, thanks for that.

Now that's a project for you Gordy develop a square grinder that doesn't cost a bajillion dollars. So us East Coast guys can get in the game.
I was watching this again and came back to make the same comment.
Someday…someday I’ll find one
Gordy, do you prefer the Silvey over the Simington, or is it just a case of they both have their pluses and minuses?
Only one you’re missing is a Ziegelmeyer

But would you shoot the sparks into your drink if it had a drink holder there? Just kidding.
