What do people think is the best way to sharpen up a blade for an ice auger? I've used a really small wet-stone and had that help quite a bit, but is there a better way to do it? I also apparently got the wrong pitch on a blade once and couldn't get it to bite after I sharpened it! Is there anything to do to avoid having an improper pitch on the blade when you're done sharpening it (other than just being sure to keep the stone flat to the bottom of the blade)? BWE- I think you commented on this one time, but I couldn't find your post. You must have some insight for me. Since I got your attention BWE, I hear my dad slung a little dump at you for me the other day on the phone. All meant in good fun of course- I'm just jealous that you get on the water more than me. Hope you're happy with the goodies he's putting together for you. Scoot
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
