    This comes in handy as I watched your swept back roughing gouge video and I wanted to give it a try. I got a high speed steel roughing gouge for a little over $20. The problem is it is too big for my wolverine or Tormek jigs so this will work great. I have my CBN wheels set up to use my Tormek jigs. What I learned here is to put the roughing gouge jig between the tool rest and the grinding wheel. Tormek has the jig on the other side of the tool rest and what I found for me is as I lift the handle to put the gouge to the wheel the spinning wheel pushed the gouge away and I got small facets on the edge. Maybe I was not doing it right but you made a lot of sense the way you did it . Thanks. I will give your method a try.

      Use it on the slowest speed and you won't overheat the tool. At a later date if you can upgrade to a CBN wheel, you will have a perfect sharpening system. That's all I use.

    Sehr gute Idee , auf die Befestigungsschrauben noch eine Flügelmutter geschweißt macht es noch einfacher . Ist das ein Nass oder Trockenschleifstein? Der Schliff dürfte mit einer CBN Schleifscheibe noch besser werden und etwas weniger Drehzahl vermeidet Funkenflug . Zum schnellen Nachschleifen oder sogar Umschleifen werde ich mir deine Idee nachbauen . Super Job !!!👍

Yes a CBN wheel would be better but this video was for those who don't have a sharpening system, who need a quick, cheap and easy solution, until they can get a system in place. This is a dry grindstone used on the video. I have a few systems already in place for me. I use CBN wheel.

    Thanks for sharing this! Only thing I would be concerned about is the wear from your grinding wheel falling onto your lathe's pristine bed. I would put something there to collect that abrasive dust and protect the bed - especially when dressing the grinding wheel with a diamond dresser.

    I know you also meant to warn about the dangers of those sparks and that you should clean up all shavings around the lathe before attempting to sharpen your tools. You have recreated a slow speed grinder which is preferred over the cheap grinders.

      @glennteagleofukwoodcraftca5308  9 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you for your comment Ivan. Who said they have to use a chuck? I don't believe at any moment that I said you have to have a chuck. There are many other ways you can hold things on a lathe, ie between centres. To make a point clear, a chuck can cost as little as £50. Even cheaper second hand. Many people think a chuck is essential and then think about sharpening. So, I honestly can not see any point in your comment. Toodle pip.
