Wolverine Sharpening Jig
Mike Rubes
>Hi all,
Yesterday was my birthday and my family surprised me and really came through by getting me the Wolverine Sharpening jig and Vari-Grind attachment! I'm really psyched about the chance to finally create some repeatable grinds on my tools. I've been freehanding it since I started turning about two years ago, and frankly, that just wasn't cutting it (no pun intended). I found that no matter how careful I was, I always ended up getting a slightly different profile than I started with.
Also, I checked out the Oneway web site and they offer a free video download or DVD disc of how to use the jig! The idea of a 40+MEG download didn't really appeal, so I opted for the free disk :) I'll be curious to see them put it through its paces. The instructions look pretty clear, albeit brief.
Anyway, I am right in the middle of a bookcase project, so it might be a few days before I get to play with this.
Wish me luck!
Got some really great family members in Apex, NC!!
