There is one other, equally simple method to use ..
1. Take a blade with a known bevel angle, say 25 degrees. Mark/colour the bevel with black texta.
2. Place the blade on the tool rest and the bevel against the wheel.
3. Rotate the wheel by hand. You only have to rotate enough to see scratches forming on the bevel.
4. Adjust the tool rest angle until the scratches are in the centre of the bevel.
Done.

Thanks Derek, I have actually used your/this method with the piece of wood as a guide honed to 25 also for easier setup, seems to work ok but this method above is exactly that minus the setup for wood jig. Seems to work fine and is FAR easier to setup than other methods. Spent way to much time on this and probably to fussy trying to get 25 when 25,26,27 will do, or 25 "ish" then hone to 30 anyway. Thanks all,
Jeff
