    Default Huge water grinding stone

    On Caspers new You tube clip you can see about half way through the clip where he is hand scraping a draw side. In the back ground there is a huge water grinding wheel he uses for sharpening. Don't know where you would get a wheel like this but the machine doesn't look that old.

    Sorry China i just clicked on the link i posted and it worked fine for me. I was told the water grinder in the clip is actually used as an axe grinder.

    Can't help with the grinding wheel, but there's some great craftsmanship in those videos.

    It's a joy to watch someone who uses their hand tools with no apparent effort whatsoever, and who obviously has great confidence in those tools.

    Thanks for the heads up about the videos Steve.
