If you charged $7 a blade to sharpen, at the listed price of $998, you'd have to sharpen around 142 blades to break even (I'm assuming only sharpening other people's blades). If you were batching these, you could be setting several blades while one is sharpening. If you could do 10 blades a week, that would be about 14 weeks until break even. I imagine most people would be bringing 4 or 5 blades at a time. I don't know if this will sharpen blades used on other machines, but if you could WM blades on other machines, you could do local sales and sharpening. If there's a decent number of folks will mills in the area, this would be a great business for a teenager or a stay-at-home parent.
I already got a message this morning. Someone bring me 25 blades. Didn’t expect it to happen that fast. That’s $175 in a few hours I like exploring the possibility of making these additional sight incomes, but I don’t wanna spend all my time grinding blades either
I have a couple of blades I sharpened with a modified chainsaw sharpener. They cut well but one or two teeth have too much set so they leave grooves. When you are setting teeth will that setter catch that tooth? Thanks for the video.
It's not just the savings it's time saved dropping them off and later picking them up from a shop that sharpens or waiting for an order of new blades to come in
@@SystemsPlanetEverybody's situation is different but renewing a blade is about saving money. 10 blades are $240 which is roughly 50 hours of sawing or $4.80 per sawing hour. If you sharpen/set each blade 5 times that's 250 sawing hours or $0.96 per sawing hour. If you buy a new blade each time you would spend $1200 to get 250 sawing hours for a difference of $960. Your mileage may vary
Thinking you still need additional adjustment. The sharpening wheel should not be hitting the top backside of the blade. Should be inside tooth into the gullet, one completed cycle with even sound. Nice sharpener!

@@RockhillfarmYT That's what you have a teenager for :)
I agree, great side business for your son, then he can buy more things for his jeep and have money to take his date out for a movie and dinner..lol..
I think that diamond blade is a very good idea. Thanks for the video demonstration. Excellent job, my friend!
Man, this is some awesome equipment. Very cool to see in action.
Howdy Brock! Pretty cool setup. I can definitely see the value if you are using your mill a lot. Nicely done and thanks for sharing 🤠
That’s a nice sharpening/ setting machine. Thanks Brock for sharing the setup and explaining how it all works. Very enjoyable and educational video.
Thanks
That is so cool! Thanks for sharing Brock.
As always. Thanks so much for watching.
GREAT Video, been looking for info on these setters!
Better to sharp before setting or inverse or if it's not important ?

Exactly right. You have to count the value of your time
@@SystemsPlanet that is a good option for the person that doesn't saw much but he mentioned that in the video

@T_Humphries somebody just dropped off 25 blades for me to sharpen
@@RockhillfarmYT Nice!! You better get busy
Brock when you're doing detailed work like that bring the camera closer to what you are doing so, we can see what you're doing..... thanks for sharing
Yes or, even better, a second camera and switch between them in post
The wood will clean them up I believe
I knew I was gonna be late, animal problems yesterday
Ugh
safety !!!
Spray your blades with your oil spray product , forget name . 🤷🏻♂️rust patrol when storing them outside ,( worth a try )
👀
You can sharpen Paul’s blades now.

Seems like Woodland Mills would have designed the setter with HDPE inserts to stop that god awful noise 😮. Fingernails on a chalkboard!
