    Talking Tormet T-7 first usage

    Hi guys!

    I just bought a Tormek T-7 with all its cool jigs and wanted to share some cool stuff.

    This is the machine itself, fresh out of the box:

    They included something that I find hilarious:

    I started with this chipped chisel:

    Took a couple of minutes of lightly pressing on it.

    This was the final result after some honing:

    Totally recommended. I love the machine.

    Cheers,

    Way to go, ANK!
    Looking great for sharpening any and every thing.
    The real deal is to get good at it, really good at it,
    for the people who can't understand.

    Let's see now. 12 pieces of Sorbey lathe tools (maybe $1,200 worth) and you need them tuned up from a freak who had no idea what sharpening meant to a dog dish.
    Some days, I can pay it forward for any lathe time I could ever desire.

    Enjoy your new machine ank.

    A good source of info when you find it's not quite painting by numbers as advertised is:
