With the new turning station comes a new sharpening jig. Best $2.00 spent at bunnings yet. 12mm plywood offcut.

new White oxide wheel.

Nice one. Good to see some expenditure of grey cells rather than dollars.

That's a good design, nice and compact. :2tsup:

You've chosen a good method for your sharpening jig as well. It's best suited for constant grinds on gouges, but if you want swept-back wings all you need is something similar to the Woodcut Tru-Grind tool holder... your existing slide would work well instead of the Woodcut base. ;)

Thanks Skew, I do have this lined up to make, for just that very thing.
