I am having trouble cutting a straight line with my chainsaw. Someone mentioned that it may be that the teeth are not sharpened at the right angle. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks

I had this recently after sharpening the chain - in the end I fitted a new bar as the old one was definately worn and everything is now perfect. B&Q seem cheapest with new bar and chain together. By the way once sharpened the old chain is far better than the new one - don't forget to take a bit off the depth guage when sharpening though.

Or buy a new chain.

Thats absolutely right...have the chain sharpened by machine at a local horticultural shop and notice the difference.
