When sharpening the chain of an electric or chainsaw with a file, it is necessary to conveniently fix the tire to the surface. A homemade stand with a clamp may come in handy for this. Moreover, this device can be used both in the workshop and in camping conditions.
To make a stand with a clamp for sharpening a chain of a chainsaw, you need a U-shaped clamp (you can make it yourself from improvised materials), as well as 2 pieces of a steel square. The latter will act as supporting legs of the device.
The process of making a homemade stand
First, from the square bar 15x15 mm, it is necessary to cut two identical pieces 20 cm long, which will be used as the supports of the stand. On the one hand, each piece must be cut off at an angle of 45 degrees, on the other hand, sharpened under a cone.
The result should be two legs with a pointed end. Thanks to the sharp ends, the tire stand itself can be installed on any wooden surface, hemp in the forest, as well as in the ground.
Then a U-shaped clamp will be required to clamp the chain saw bar. Moreover, the clamp itself can be easily made independently from scraps of metal. To bend the square with the letter "U" you will need to use a bending machine.
Then it remains only to weld the legs to the clamp frame, and the home-made stand for sharpening the chainsaw chain is ready to work. You can see the detailed manufacturing process of this device in the video on the website.
