Chainsaw sharpening woe s
Couldn't figure where to put this?
I had two chaines that were in need of profesional sharpening (my son got a lesson in what NOT to do with a saw when he used mine helpng the scout troops) Anyway's, I felt it was too far gone for me to sharpen with file. I also had anouther chain that was ready so I figured,
"Hey, Im working BoKoo OT so I will take em in to a shop" I decided to go to a local shop instead of my usual saw shop guys I have dealt with in the past. I feel my chains are sharpened horrible and almost ruined! I need someone to tell me if I am correct?
The grinding wheel must of been loaded big time or a total idiot what using it or both. My chains are a pretty deep blue where he sharpened then. There is also a huge shanker burr on all the teeth where he sharpened em. It looks like he took off a hell of a lot of material?
Every time I have ever had a blade sharpened, it has always come back looking clean,free of burrs and shinny steel clean! Am I correct is saying that the chains were sharpened incorrectly?
I used one of them and the burr started to come off but the chain really did not cut good at all?
What would you all do??? I dont want them taking another crack at it but it is eating me inside since I paid $28 to have 3 chains sharpened???
Would you call them? or go in and show them but NOT allow them to tough it again OR just dont say a friggin word and take em into my trusty usual place, also just chalk it up as an expiriance?
Yes, I am tiffed! but at the same time, my time is worth alot to me right now so maybe I should not run around town to rub their nose in it?

I went to my usual saw shop and had it corrected. I sleep better since I forgot about my bad choice!
The blue comes from any number of circumstances. agreed but the fact that all of the reasons, "too much stock removal too fast, loaded wheel,etc.
As for temper though? a file cuts the chain so its not over 50rc I would guess more like a 4140? Just a guess though.
I bought a new chain for my husgavarna for 25 and change. (There abouts)

For what ever reason, that chain in question, , wont fit back on the sprocket, it came loose after heavy use this weekend and it does not seat anymore. I was in a hurry, pressed for time against the weather and a long road trip so I put on the new chain. I dont even want to look closer at it for I feel I think I know what happened. It went into the scrap bin this afternoon anfdd for a lousy 22 bucks, I baought a new replacement! Now I dont ever need to look at, or think about that fiasco!
