Flossing your teeth
« on: October 06, 2002, 07:18:11 pm »
One thing I make a habit of before filing my chain is to take a narrow piece of rag and floss each and every cutting tooth on the chain.
This only takes a minute and it prevents the file from plugging up.

A good idea. I've been using a tooth brush, but the flossing idea will clean better.

I`m trying to think of a way to get feathers to stick to the chain on my 335 so I can use it as a feather duster in the house.

Intersting concept flossing your saws teeth.  I've never seen a need for it.  The teeth on any saw I've ever run were clean and shiny for the most part.  Maybe a little dirt or dust here and there but nothing the file couldn't handle.  After every tooth I wipe the file across my pants leg to knock off the filings.  That's why my Carhart Arctic bibs have a fuzzy appearance on the right leg and my old pair has a hole wore in them.
