it's Pete from cheap homesteading and I'm in the garage today and we're gonna
do a little bit of a review on the princess Otto 12 volt change opener
princess Otto is my favorite store the best way I can describe it it's kind of
like a a firm mechanic's woodworking a store that is very very reasonably
priced so the closest thing you guys have to it is Harbor Freight Harbor
Freight has a lot of the same things but Princess Otto seems to have a way larger
selection and more industrial like big sockets and firm related stuff so I was
walking around Princess Otto and I found a 12 volt change sharpener and I thought
that is a great idea I've actually seen some people use this
and it seemed to work really well and it's very portable so I can probably put
it in my four wheeler and take it out with me and if I need to touch up a
chain or something I can touch it up and I can get cutting again so we're gonna
open this up and take a look at it I like the way this is - it is so easy to
get into it it's not was bubble pot
you've got your handheld sharpener with an on/off switch and you got your angles
murked on a nice guide so you can cut the right angle I like the fact it has
the wrench for the cutting head actually connected to it so you don't end up
losing that but you don't have that oh my gracious I'd lose it solvent and you
got your other sized cutting tips here
there's a small one
okay so there you go
get rid of that okay so we'll get out the old instructions what's the warnings
here they probably like don't lick it or something like I don't know we're in
understand safety instructions using this tool the operator must follow basic
principles reduce the risk of personal injury all right so basically there you
know if it looks if your little cutter head looks like a little weird shape
there you got throw it out okay so let's get a battery and see how this thing run
there's one thing you have to take into consideration when you're buying these
cheaper tools my climate is cold my garage it was actually like I don't know
it's like -20 outside but it was like minus five in my garage this morning
talk pump the heat on a bit and you probably still see my breath as like
plus six or something like that but the cord I can tell that this cord is
actually pretty good quality you ever pull it out it's really cold it's like
stiff and it cracks you can tell this is really flexible so that's actually one
big bonus to this sharpener not a hard percent sure who makes it but the
plastics pretty good and everything seems pretty sturdy on it so I think it
should work pretty good so let's try this thing that she sounds pretty good
well give it a little bit of a try I'm not gonna actually do a whole sharpen
with it but I was kind of excited to see how it is and I think that's actually
pretty good quality
you know what I'm actually getting a little bit excited we're gonna do a
whole video on sharpening the chain with this but even just trying that a few
teeth the edge is extremely extremely sharp and because it's round it makes a
nice little concave right up to the point which I could imagine this will
cut amazing so pretty impressive I'll have to see how long the glass see you
guys are good
