Hi Tony, I can't seem to fined the 'tool' you mentioned. However, a dremmel or knock-off and a suitable bit is hard to beat while sharpening a chainsaw.
Hi Tony,
Have you considered a Harbor Freight chainsaw sharpener. You do have to pull the chain but it is quick, accurate and works good. I have used mine for the past five or six years and often sharpen four or more chains at time. It takes perhaps five minutes to do the job on each chain. I use a diamond stone to touch up and keep them sharp in use. Since I am often using the chains for ripping boards I want them really sharp but I also do
5-10 cords a year of firewood and really don't like having any chainsaw work take any longer than it needs to.Of course on a related topic, in the chainsaw world Tim Allen had it right, more power is gooder.

Brian, Thanks for the feedback. I looked at the harbor Freight tool but really dont want to take the chain off everytime I want to sharpen. Its just more convienient to keep it on. I will keep the tool in mind though. Tony
oops sorry mine is the harbor fright which sells the Oregon elec
On sale it cost only $40.
PS tak> Thanks William.
