Hey there! Good luck on your business venture! I’m currently using whetstones myself for sharpening, I was hoping you could explain why you switched to belts and if you’ve experienced any instances of accidentally taking too much material? I’ve been considering the switch to powered sharpening myself but I’m afraid I have too heavy of a hand for it.
I've never really taken off too much material. Just use a light hand and I don't go less than a 120 grit belt unless absolutely necessary. Belt sharpening with good belts is much faster. I would recommend edge trailing to start. Edge leading will take off material faster in my opinion. Thanks!
