Looking to buy a chain grinder. I'm good at filing chains but due to working in almost exclusively urban trees, we are hitting nails, fence, hidden screw eyes from ancient hammocks, etc and once the teeth on one side of the chain are shorter than the other, hand filing only goes so far. This is going to be used exclusively for occasions when I need to fix the uneven length in cutters. I'd love input on old models that are easy to use, newer stuff that works well, whatever. Thanks in advance

I had one of these and sharpened 1000's of Chains in it without an issue. From late 1990's - 2004, kept saw chains resharpened for Firewood cutting. Over 1,000 cord per season, so you can imagine the nails and the dirt.
I found best, the Diamond cutter wheels (don't overheat them) , so I did not have to redress the Ruby style grinding wheels.
I do not recall the Arbor center hole size. Stihl will know this and should be on the specifications in mm.
