I bought a lot of Milwaukee 10 inch blades on Ebay a while back, it turned out to be one of the best investments I ever made (15 blades for about $250). After using one considerably for 6 months or so for framing and trim work it has stayed unbelievably sharp. I'm set for life!!
Roger, enjoy the videos well done. I've had one of these machines for about five years. You are correct when you say a bit more money spent on it could have improved it. However, the main thing needed is time and mostly....patience. If you just chuck a blade in it and bish, bash, bosh - your not going to get any good result. I downloaded a digital level onto an old iPod. Used that to set the cutting wheel and the saw blade in a precise orientation. Add a few extra locking nuts to make sure everything is stable. I also colour in the saw tips with a permanent marker and look at them after sharpening with a powerful magnifying lens to ensure even sharpening. If your a professional tradesman this is probably not worth your time. For a garage workshop do it your-selfer trying to save a few quid the before and after results are very noticeable. I got it because the local firm I used to sharpen blades closed down. If you've got plenty of patience get one. If you've got a short fuse - defiantly don't.
SKILL BUILDER MY ASS !!! He is sharpening the blade on the wrong side of the grinding dice and rotating the blade backwards. That's why the "Stop" isn't working. You are MISGUIDING YOUR FOLLOWERS !!! And you must know this by now but leave the review up for the money. Shame on you! 😠
I got one a couple of years back as I had 25 odd blades varying diameters that were blunt. At first had no luck, but I got a new 600 grit blade as the one supplied is way to coarse and now it works amazing. every so often if I get rained off or something, il get some sharpened done. honestly get a new disk and have a practise. No good for rough buggers, but if your generally skilled at sharpening and understand blade geometry you can get fantastic results with it.
What 600 grit disc did you but mate? Wouldn't mind one for mine
@@John...44... I got a few cheap Ebay ones from China. They were a only a few pounds each. There was a draw back, I had to drill the middle out with a step drill as couldn't get any with the right bore. Well worth it though.
@@MrBez007 ok, I have had the same issue, I can only find 16mm center hole. I'll try do the same as you. Cheers 👍🏼
@@John...44... yeah that's the size I found. Mine didn't drill out absolutely central but still works great
Guys guys guys I bought one of these for my workshop turn it 180 degrees to your self so handle is on your right and yes get rid of step stop I swear set it up for your self and this piece of kit will save you thousands and I mean that I've had hundreds of blades through mine great little thing
It's the bloody plunge blades we wanna re sharpen, so thank you for the head's-up! You saved me a few notes here!

Hi, I have never come across a blade like yours but as you said blades are so cheap now that it isn't worth sharpening them. Having seen you with this item I don't think the evolution blade would work either. Mathias Wandle made one that I use and it has never let me down yet. His plans are so easy to follow and if you do get stuck, you can watch his video.

Had one of these machines found the indexing mechanism to be lacking in precision and the blade support inadequate so I would endorse all your findings Roger and brand it rinky dink
For unequaly spaced teeth locate the indexing peg to the equivalent tooth on the next pattern that matches further round the blade.
If that doesn't make sense then I tried my best.
The blades with a gap are multi purpose or general purpose blades. They are set up that way so the blade can be used for ripping and cross cutting.

I was looking at buying exactly that machine a few weeks ago and but couldn't find any reviews or know anyone that has one so thanks for the video Rodger very helpful. Ill probably stick to paying my man to do it.

Blades also need regular cleaning. All that resin on the sides of the teeth are going to be creating plenty of friction and thus heat.
Good point

All my saw blades have exactly the same teeth and spacing. I can use each blade 3 times longer than usual. Work that out over a year and thats alot of money saved. I can buy a new blade for about £20-£25 or have an old one resharpened for £10-£15, so I only need to sharpen say 4 blades to make money back. I use to buy a new blade roughly every month, so 12 blades at £240 a year (not including mitre saw blades), but now I'm only buying about 4-5 blades a year. £160 saved on skillsaw blades alone, it's about another £180 saved on mitre saw blades.
Could of bought a couple of new blades for that price. Good try though Rodger 👍👍. And you got yourself a couple of hours in the shed which are priceless 😀😀.
You would have to treat it as two different blades and set the teeth for each accordingly. I've had Sealey tools and they are raw but robust in my experience. I still want one, thanks for the video.
I've had one of these for years albeit under another label. I have found the same issues as you. Fact is some blades are infernally complex in terms of the grinding angles and frankly I lack the patience. Others are more straightforward and perhaps I have had my money's worth from it.

Those Stanley quick squares in the back are going for over £200 now on ebay. Crazy
Yep, I was looking for one about 6 months ago & then they were going for £150 (again "last one"). Still out of my price range back then ;-)
hi mate
thanks .you just saved me £70.00 .cheers mate
This looks like a great machine VEVOR Circular Saw Blade Sharpener 370W Grinding Machine w/ Diamond Emery wheel
I seen someone pointed out he's sharpening the blade backwards LOL I came back to this after looking other tutorials and sure enough the guy leaving the comment was right. But the comment got removed. Rather mis lead than apologize for talking shit he doesn't know lol.
Y would it throw you off? Do all the similar teeth, and than switch to the other distance and finish those off
I think if you tried that you would see why it is a pain. You have to take the spacing from the previous tooth.
@@SkillBuilder there are only 2 types of spacing, correct? Or are all the spaces teeth seperate from one another?
@noxxi knox that's what I was saying
@noxxi knox not too bad. Just an inconvenience.
Roger see the roofing square behind you .mines snapped last week and to buy it ten years ago was £30 now you can only get them on ebay for £125 . Talk about inflation
Best roofing square hands down. Wish I had two l, one for each end of the rafter. Stanley should bring them back, sell like hot cakes!
@@craigcrofts156 I love 2 buy one. i have the small 6 inch one but the large one would be the ticket
Dargan tools have brought out the same 12inch quick square in black with white numbers I seen it online for 45 quid. Can't understand why Stanley stopped making them.
It's worthwhile to keep a specific RIPPING blade (minimum teeth) on the table saw for rip cuts and do all your cross-cutting on the miter saw. Ripping blades give a planed like finish on boards with little sanding and will last a long time. Don't use the rip blade for plywood, glued stuff or any other cutting.
Every couple of months I drop my dull blades to my saw sharpening guy. I have 3 good quality blades for all my saws so they i leave it to the pro.
Interesting video roger 👍
Yerh I agree ,'Bedford saw& tool company' does it for me spot on job
You only have to set up twice, once for both spacings, just skip and come back

Saved me Roger thanks have the makita too il keep sending mine away £15 ain't bad really 👍
I bought an ebay version like the Chicago in the US. I sharpened my circular saw blade for aluminium and it was cutting beautiful through 5 mm aluminium sheets! Btw the more you use this and change angles etc? It loosens up for adjustment and locks tightly when i sharpen. Cheers from Australia 👍
Diamond file works well but need to do it regularly before too much wear
I bought an identically-looking machine some years back and after a long number of only slightly shaper blades I thought I was simply was using it wrongly… I had hoped to pick up some hints how to properly use it or tinker it to a better function. Perhaps the machine belongs in the trash, with my old blades.
6am Saturday here in New Zealand!
Beer O'clock here, pal.
I'm in nz too , where in Nz are u Terpe? I'm in Akl
I was being silly. Apologies. Perhaps you misunderstood me. It's 8.30 pm Friday 19th July (GMT) here. I'm on my second pint btw. If it's beer O'clock where you are,
how many have you had? lol.
Can you show what maintenance you do on your power tools, specifically cleaning and greasing tools that create a lot of dust. Example : multi tool and sds drill, asking because my fein 350Q parts catalogue shows a small tube of grease and makita has 3 types of grease ( large thumb size plastic bottles) but neither show you what or how to grease
Perhaps a second indexing arm, one tooth behind the standard one, so that you don’t lose timing on the tooth spacing you reach a skipped tooth?

Roger, grinding your teeth is a sign of stress I've read, you need a beer now to calm down.
Good one 😂😂
Interesting! Thanks for the advice. Cheers.
You reckon Irwin blades are better than Freud 🤔
Good question, I've haven't heard anything about Irwin blades.
Subjective really. I've used both and like both in my mitre and table saws and tbh, couldn't say I noticed much difference. Both do clean cuts/rips, keep an edge well and take resharpening well. They also both leave a powder coating mark when worked hard which is annoying. Red in the case of the Freud, blue with Irwin. But then, this is an issue with all the powder coated blades. The coatings are great for reducing friction but will eventually mark work. Started to happen with my Bosch Expert (blue) blades and my Key Blades (white) too - though both of those are excellent. If anything, the cut from the Key Blades is the one I've been most impressed with - super clean cuts with either their ripping or cross cut plunge saw blades. Better than my Mafell originals even. Their range is pretty limited though.
Bisch Basch Bosch thanks very much for your well explained reply much appreciated. Would also take this opportunity to say how much I enjoy your channel, Big thumbs up to you sir 👍👍👍
Freud are good as well. I think they both come out of the same Italian factory.
Skill Builder to be fair I shouldn’t have made the comment as I have never used a Irwin blade so I was a bit naughty, I did however try a trend blade on recommendation in my chop-saw, the only thing the trend blade had going for it was the price. I am now back to using Freud. Love your videos Roger 👍
Hi Roger I love your videos they are very interesting and informative. Was looking for some advice I want to get a saw that I can cut sheets down on but don't know weather to get a track saw or table saw. Was also wondering if a track saw is able to do small rips on wood like a table saw would.
Mark
@@sicpac66t thanks for the advice
I would go for the track saw. I hardly use my table saw these days.

For nearly £80 or £79 to be correct I wonder how many you can get sharpened . As I have never sent any away before to be sharpened , have you ? I think if I remember correctly Robin said he had in one of the other videos but I might be wrong . It could of been when you did the reviews on the plunge saws . You will have to ask him and how much a blade is .When you started this video , I thought oh this is off to be interesting as I haven't tried sharpening a blade before . After your review I will not be getting one . keep them coming .

Also ...I have several blades that do not have flat faces to the teeth so the blade holder would need to have the ability to be angled....to the sharpening wheel.
it does tilt, yeah
If you are not using that estwing hammer can I have it please?
it is all in the setting up, have not used the sealey one, the one i had looked virtually the same, you just set the guide to the mising tooth when the cutter is at the next missing tooth, then as you go around everything lines up perfect. i could not be bothered though, lifes too short to waste time sharpening blades when they are so cheap.

Interesting machine, I see you were sharpening at 90 degrees which would be for a cross cut, does that machine have set up for various hook angles to sharpen rip blades?
That machine has every angle known to man. That's the problem. You need to adjust everything and I don't remember it having degree marks or gauges. Mine had the worst sharpening wheels. I remember one being way to coarse. That machine has been kicking around for years. It's just a pain in the ass and it's packed with the wrong blades. You could make it work if you sat down and analyzed it.
@@alext9067 Sounds like the Sealey I used to know. I don't live in the UK now but Sealey and Clarkes used to sell a lot of cheap tools that often were not that good.

Looking for a cordless circular saw for cutting through old garden decking. And for general cutting work (no idea what I'm doing). I can't find any reviews on your channel for them unfortunately :( as I've started to trust your reviews. Anyone recommend one?
Tbh probably a better job than spandex do blade came back blunter than I sent it off
I hope one day i will be as skilled as you are
Life is too short/time is too valuable to fiddle around sharpening blades.
Hi Rodger gread vid but fcuk that, I send mine away at least u know they are all perfect, and if there is any issues u phone the company that sharpened them,keep up the vids👍👍
my best friends name is legit blade sealey no joke
There are about five tooth geometries of blades on the market, every one is sharpened totally differently. Just saying...
Definitely fair review but I won’t be going for this one
No it's not SKILL BUILDER MY ASS !!! He is sharpening the blade on the wrong side of the grinding dice and rotating the blade backwards. That's why the "Stop" isn't working. You are MISGUIDING YOUR FOLLOWERS !!! And you must know this by now but leave the review up for the money. Shame on you! 😠

Somone sold you a reject blade there shouldn't be any gaps
That is not true. There are many tooth configurations

Watch the Harbor Freight videos, it is the same machine.
Have seen this man showing how to plaster, it was disasters!
He should be named skilled actor not a builder.
Still better than your video on plastering.
Skill Builder , WAY better!
£80 for that! Just buy a new blade.
Nope!
Not efficient enough!
To fiddly!
Wow, what crap review why didn't you just sharpen a normal blade
