Most of my tools are older than that publication. I'm not sure if I should use those new fangled methods.

I like the shellac to repair a broken oilstone.
Makes perfect sense.

Don't remind me Ray. Fred still has my granite toothed pterodactyl tail saw. Originally Posted by wheelinround

I liked the oil stone repair as well Paul. Not sure where I would find a heating plate but I guess the BBQ would do.

Thanks for all the responses. I found this when I was working out the best way to reshape and sharpen some engineers dividers I bought. In fact it was the only resource I could find about divider maintenance, a highly important topic. Especially when engineers insist on grinding one leg shorter than the other.
