D70 is described as full chisel chain. This is very fast cutting chain but to maintain factory sharpness it should not be sharpened with a round file or a grinder built for semi-chisel chain. To do so will reduce the chain to the slower speed of semi-chisel. You need a special square grinder (that few saw shops have) or to use a special file such as a three-corner file.

Check with your local hardware store about sharpening. My local Ace store said it can sharpen the chain for $7.

Standard angle is 30 degrees, you can see in the photo closeup that the 30-degree angle is marked on the guide. There's a table that shows chain pitch mapped to stone size in the instructions that come with the kit, but the stone size corresponds to the round file diameter required for your chain pitch--check your Stihl chain saw manual or the box the chain came in to find out what pitch your chain is and what size file is required.

It's technique, you can sharpen pretty much anything with this up to a sword or machete; but the practical limit is 2x the stone length, which is 8 inches. Good general rule for all stone sharpeners.

Does very well with 4x5 film and really good with 6x6 film etc. but you need to use at least 1200 dpi resolution and the result will be a large file. Scale at 100%. The default is 400% which in my opinion gives worse results. I would save as a compressed tiff. or at least the largest resolution JPG that you an. You also need to make sure the you uncheck the option for sharpening.

I can't see any reason why you would need a larger wheel. The wheel is certainly larger than anything you'd want to sharpen as it's only the angle or pitch that needs adjustment. So this should do the job on any of your chains.

If you are using original 0.325" chain that came with saw that file size would be a 3/16" or 4.8 mm round file Oregon 2 pack of those files is part # 40460

You can contact Timber Tuff at: 218-943-6290 or just play around with it without running it, trial fitting it to the chain, and you will be able to figure it out. Sharpen all prongs oriented one way all the way around the chain, then sharpen all the other prongs that are oriented 45 deg's in the other direction. Mark the chain for a starting and finishing reference. Don't have to remove chain.

Depends on the chain. Do you have any specifications? www.oregonchain.com has an excellent guide that explains all the parts of a chain. That would probably help you figure out what size chain you have. Or, if you have the Dremel kit, with the three different stones, you could figure out what size cutters your chain has by holding each bit up to a cutter to determine which one fits. Or...you could take your chain to a hardware store and compare the various round files to your chain to determine the best fit. I would guess an 18" chainsaw would require a 3/16" bit, or file, but you need to make sure before trying to sharpen it.

It's a standard 12' chain so Amazon, Lowes and Home Depot all have them. I've never bothered sharpening a chain because they are too easy to just replace.

A simple round file will keep a saw sharp for a long time. Get the guy at a Stilh shop to show you how. Pulpwood cutters mostly just use a file and they run their saws day after day. If you get your chain so messed up that it won't work...unlikely.... a new one is less than $20. This video is pretty good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxrhQv6hyfY

What files work best? If you are referring to the D72 Oregon chain that I see in Home Depot, this is 3/8" pitch, semi-chisel, with 72 links. It fits some 20" bars. Use a 7/32" round file. This is stated on a sort of folded tap on the covering cardboard label.I like the Pferd 17068--a smooth cut 7/32 file that gives very fast cutting chain, but other 7/32" round files will work.Note, if you have filed the cutter length down to near the end of its useful life, a 3/16" file may fit better at this final stage. This is because for 3/8" chain the cutter gets lower by about 0.05" from new chain to the end of its usable length. Height drops about 1:6 with length change. Usable length is about 0.3" for most 3/8" change.Hope this helps. What files work best?

No. I believe you are referring to the raker. I use a flat file and a depth guage that came with a sharpening file I got for my saw before I bought the Timberline

The guide has to fit on the chain, that is the important fact. You can probably use whatever file you want as long as the guide fits the chain.
