Yes, we do them by hand too some of the time,  but if you use the grinder periodically, it will even out the teeth. I keep 2 or 3 chains and swap them out. If you use the grinder to do all of them at one time it is fairly quick to sharpen them. It is truly amazing how well a sharp saw can cut compared to a dull one.

My personal choice is a proper size round file with a handle. Having
developed the skill to sharpen the teeth, for myself, it is much quicker to
dress the teeth and get back to work... no setup or fuss.
5 min on a 20 inch saw, I'm back to cutting chips. You just have to learn
to hold the file angle and feel the cut of the file.. once you have it
down... easy.

It makes it easy to keep all of the teeth on the chain essentially the
same. That is much more difficult to do when filing by hand.

I now have a new bar, two new chains, the proper file, and the greaser

the sprocket at the end of the bar. Will test it tomorrow ...
