When bev did her survey, several people commented that they were at least 
partially ambidetrious.  I just saw this article and thought it was

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.
