Since I use a Dremel, or my Stihl 12V sharpener, and always Stihl cool-grind stones.... I've never had to clamp a bar. Also... I run the grinder in both directions.
That sounds appealing. I tried the dremel in an earlier day, and what I found was that the stone clogged up. I would then spend twice again as much time trying to de-steel the stone.

And what a I see Therrin saying is it works for him, doesn't work for me.....I was doing something wrong. Seriously. Two guys using the same tool the same way getting a different result....? I had to have been doing something wrong.

Was it the wrong type of stone, was it the RPMs?
This was one of the earlier Dremels.
Are there carbide cutter bits instead of the stone?
Are there industrial diamond chainsaw stones for use in the Dremel
Can you put a regular round file in a Dremel?


Does the Dremel have variable speed?


I could learn to love a dremel with variable speed and an aggressive cutting action. Using a guide, every single tooth would be quick and perfect. MMmMmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
