This channel is so interesting to me, it touches on so many things that just isnt covered on most other channels and tutorials like odd shaped blades, maintenance and restoration of tools, shears/scissors, problems ive come across myself but with a much better solution etc. Sharing your knowledge is very valuable, especially for those of us who are intermediate at sharpening and are running into a new set of problems to overcome, and I think that you sharing your knowledge and experience instead of keeping it to yourself as "trade secrets" speaks volumes of you as a person.
Thank you, I really appreciate what you do.
Thanks
Could not agree more! Love this channel and always get excited when a new video drops!
Fantastic wealth of knowledge.You are my go to.Thanks for all you share.Very grateful you take the time do explain everything so well.
You are very welcome
Thanks for the video Paul. Good stuff. 👍
What I have found to be the best degreaser is Castrol Super Clean. It works better than Purple Power in my experience.
I sharpen pruners on my Edge Pro Apex with the scissor attachment. Does a beautiful job.
I haven't used evaporust but it sounds like a good product.
I use CorrosionX which is the best rust preventer I have ever used.
You do such a great job with these, I clean mine too, with a wire wheel followed by a scotchbrite belt with the white buffing compound. Works great.
Yes steel is very soft, I have had good results even with the tormek sg stone,
I have considered investing in a dremel, the battery one looks really nice, no cord in the way there!
I did them many times on the tormek when I did not have the TAS yes it works great too
Nice job , one of your better ones 🎉❤
Great video. Thanks for all your videos and the way you explain everything.
your welcome!
All nice, but I just give a quick write wheel clean with a Dremel, use a dremel to sharpen them without taking all that time taking them apart...
Taking photos is a dang good idea! Thank you!
I still do it on complicated things some hedgers can be a little crazy especially the ones with leverage to make cutting easier that’s the ones I photograph the most
Looking sharp.
Great video!
Thanks!
Great video
thank you
How about on a scotchbrite belt? Just want to also mention I’m amazed at your work and a lot of great info! Thanks for sharing!
Great suggestion!
i do similar......no tas.......1x42 kally and viels.......variable.........cleaning i spray with WD40 set aside and clean a bit later with a stiff wire wheel in buffer.......never take apart.......some hedge trimmers i have to take apart.......great tip on the mr clean eraser and the narrow belts...........thanks
Good stuff
You might wanna try xcp professional clear coat rustproofing for pruners 🤙
thanks
Hey man, have you ever used cork belts for polishing ? have seen a couple people use for great effects with green polish
I tried them a few years ago - not a fan very messy hard to break in but they seem to work for some throws crap all over the shop LOL I like scotch brite belts better
On the toolker, why not start at 120 like regular knives? Does edge leading or trailing make a difference on pruners?
steel is very soft on pruners 120 cubatron removes to much
Great video! What is your go to brand for scissor wax? Thank you!
I use wolf industries scissor wax
wolffindustries.com/products/scissors-lubricant?_pos=1&_sid=607fafde8&_ss=r
Excellent video. Is there another name for "Scissor wax"? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
I get it from Wolf Industries who make the Twice as sharp machine wolffindustries.com/products/scissors-lubricant?_pos=1&_sid=0ed16a85f&_ss=r
