My Cousins Husband is sharpening pressure treated pine fence post with a chain saw. It looks like a good excuse to play with a Buzz saw.
After seeing John's rig on his "H" I wonder if he would give us a primer on how best to do this.
Best,
Mike

I am not sure how practical sharpening posts with a cub buzz saw would be due to guards and clearances, but here goes.
First thing is WEAR SAFETY GLASSES OR GOGGLES. I still remember the sight of that long splinter hitting my glasses, breaking and hitting again.
The post has to be able to pass over the mandrel and beyond it by about a foot or a little more.
Determine the angle you want on point (eyeball it) to decide just where to stand. lay the post on the bark side and push into saw. after cut is complete, flip it onto side just cut and do it again. repeat till 4 cuts are made. It takes practice to get it right.

One thing I forgot to mention was that we would set a block of wood and a jack under the long nose a little way in front of the blade to reduce vibration and dancing of the post on the table. Our jack had a hole in the end, and we set it under one of the bolts to keep it form sliding.
