Great value in a sharpening system
This is a precision wood tool sharpening system, at a surprisingly low cost. The innovative air cooled, heat-sink design ensures you will not burn your tool and that your shop is kept clean. Guides are built-in, not added on. It’s very easy to use.
Grinding and honing with absolute repeatability is done using PSA peel-off abrasives mounted to the surface of a flat 6" float-glass wheel. Precisely lap chisel and plane backs from 1/8 to 2" wide, then quickly grind the bevel at one of 4 pre-set angles (20, 25, 30 and 35°). No guess-work is involved. Changing abrasives is a simple matter of flipping the wheel over or changing it.
Free-hand grinding of curved gouges, for example, is done using a special slotted see-through wheel. You actually look down through the moving-slot wheel to see the tool being shaped.
