[TheForge] Chain sharpening was OT - tried to pull a Frosty

[Bob Ehrenberger]

I went back and reread the guide section, and it said to change grinding 
wheels before doing the guides. So in a perfect workd you would reserve one 
wheel just for doing the guides. I'm sure that you could use the same wheel 
that you use on the cutters without dressing if you wanted. It may not leave 
the top of the guide flat like is recomended.

DOY?  What?  I've never seen the need to redress a wheel to do the guides.

Looks like you weren't kidding when you said you needed a manual. :)
