    Default Traveling Sharpening System

    For anyone who may be interested... I made a short tutorial showing how I modeled my traveling sharpening system after the Wolverine and Varigrind system that I use in my shop.
    It's in PDF form, and I would appreciate anyone taking a look at it and letting me know if I've made some erroneous statements.
    Thanks, in advance.

    PS: I just noticed it has an extra page that is blank. I guess you could use this for notes...

    Fantastic Al. I've tried to make a couple of these sharpening jigs, but till now I've never realised the relationship between the leg angle/ bevel angle, and the side angle/arm length before. Excellent, and I'm off to make another one as soon as I can get back to the shed.

    Al,
    That is a clever little set up and clear enough for me to follow. Thanks.

    Regards
