Ambidextrous chainsaw filing

I am not ambidextrous. My wife, Judith, uses chopsticks with either hand or
even both hands at once. She is ambidextrous. I can barely write with my
right hand, much less my left. Even so, I use this ambidextrous method of
sharpening my chainsaw, and can sharpen the chain in 10 minutes or less
without removing the chain from the saw, while using only a chainsaw file and
a homemade stand.

Here are the secrets to sharpening a saw without weird filing jigs, fixtures,
or other expensive and time consuming mechanical aids.
