Over the last 20 or so years I’ve purchased at least two different types of sharpening jigs that I’ve not been really happy with. This one that you’ve made is annoying in its simplicity. Wish I’d thought of it $200 ago. Love it! Great idea! Great design! Thanks
The best ideas are always the simplest. Making this tomorrow for sure! Thanks 🙏
Big thumbs up to you Steve. Only sad people give thumbs down
Thumps down OKAY...
Just not all the time
Brilliant, Steve! Really well done! 😃
I'm definitely going to make something like that!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I have a very old one that keeps going for ages after the power is off. I have a felt wheel on one side and made a stop block with some felt that I press against it to stop it. Works perfectly!
Great to see homemade jigs that work.
I love the video. I bought an expensive jig for my grinder. It is not easy to switch from one wheel to the other. But your system will work on either. Brilliant. Thank you so much.
Neat idea Steve.👍👍
Thank you, nice to see you here, Terry.
Hi Steve, great video as always and l really like the simplicity of the stand etc. I’m definitely going to build one for my grinder which, like yours takes about two days to come to a complete stop 😂! Keep up the good work, cheers, Woody.
Thanks Steve, you do have some cracking ideas!
Excellent video Steve and advice I’m glad I came across your channel and subscribed 😆👍 cheers Phil
Thanks Steve, bought the plan, and gave a thumbs ... hold on till I just check ... up! 😅
How right you are, lowering is a bad idea, I am gonna build it the way you did. My idea was dangerous thank you for teaching me
Wonderful design
Awesome vid, loved the last bit
Great idea. Well done
A great video, I have exactly the same grinder. I gave you a big thumbs up
Superb idea
Wow! I followed you before RUclips! And I just found you again looking for a bench grinder tool rest. I'm so pleased. Now I have to find all the info I gathered from many years ago. Hmmm.
Thanks Steve,… waiting to purchase the plans
I'm working on it, I've got a bit side-tracked...
Nice
Great video! Just what I needed! Subscribed :^)
I don’t own a bandsaw but this idea should be patented. There’s nothing worse than grinding a new edge on a chisel or plane blade from scratch by hand. Robin Clevett has manufactured some hinge jigs for hanging doors and something similar for this would be a great idea.
Hi Steve, what a handy wooden jig for the bench grinder, I will make one like it for my grinder. That's it i'm hooked I going to subscribe to your channel, I will have a look of some of your other video's, Thank's for this video ,take care Regards from Wrexham WALES👍
Great idea Steve, will adapt. There's always one stalking nutter with a mental health issue trying to take a victim down. The only problem I have with you, is that you don't do enough videos.
Keep up the good work.

LOL! Yes, and, true to form, He (or possibly She) has turned up already. It can't be a coincidence. I have a short list of 3 possible culprits, but perhaps I know more vindictive individuals than I realised. Or perhaps it's a total stranger (which is slightly more scary, actually). It used to annoy me, but now I think it is funny. Some people have very sad lives. Hatred damages the hater more than the hatee, I've learned.
After that threat, I thought this time I'd better give you a thumbs up despite your somewhat derogatory dismissal of engineers, without who you would not have your grinder ! lol Bob. Interesting video and food for thought even for an engineer
LOL! I wasn't being derogatory about engineers, Bob, I think you know that I wish that I was a better one myself. I was just pointing out that our needs are often different and that manufacturers are better at catering to rusties than to splinters.
@@SteveMaskery and I think you know me well enough to know I was only teasing lol I'd like to think that we have a mutual respect for each others skill areas. Bob
@@bobminchin 😁
Great idea Steve, gonna make one tomorrow I am thinking about lowering the jig so the top of my chisel meets the middle of the grinding wheel maybe it's easier to adjust when the wheel gets worn. Love your videos
Thank you Andre. But a word of caution. I prefer not to run the risk of something (workpiece, finger, etc) coming into contct with the wheel below the centre line. It can get dragged down and into the jig, very messy. I have seen someone do that on a sander. If you don't like working that far up on the wheel, it might be better to make the platform narrower rather than lower.
Hi Steve, finally made one, 😀, however i underestimated how precies the measurements should be, 😅😅😅, do you have more tips and tricks about sharpening tools?
Complements on your videos, and waiting for your next. I am Dutch so sorry for my bad English,
Gr André
Really like this simple approach Steve. What wheels do you have on the grinder? Also, there are always going to be idiots around, personally I wouldn’t acknowledge them at all, they most likely want to see that it is bothering you so any reaction fuels their fire so to speak.
I know it sounds stupid, but I don't actually know. The coarse one says P60 on it, no idea about the white one, but it is original to the machine.
Yes, I agree about giving publicity to trolls, but I just wanted them to know that I know. Unless it is a total stranger, I can think of only three people who could be vindictive enough to go to that amount of trouble, and none of them are part of my life any more. But maybe I'm more repugnant to more people than I realise! :)
Steve, out of interest, what grit grade are you running on your wheels to get that lovely grind, and do you stone or diamond hone after, or just run as you are?
Nize
I like the simple idea, but how do you account for the changing angle as the stone weares down?
I don't. The difference is very marginal indeed, that white stone is the original.
Dear Steve, I did enjoy your video and I would like to build one for my grinder as the rests are broken. But may I suggest that you improve the sound recording of your videos. I am somewhat hearing impairment and was sometimes struggling to hear what you said. Thank you.
hi steve i am strugeling with this. if i use a higher slide ie come further up on the wheel it increases the angle on the chisel ??
Yes.
scary bandsaw moment.
LOL! Not as scary as it looks on camera. See my previous reply.
that bandsaw cutting made my heart stop, iron fingers! I am wondering if there is another tool one can use to cut the sliding baseboard at an angle
LOL! It looks worse than it is. What is not clear from the camera angle is that my left thumb is a good 3.4" away from the left. My right fingers are just supporting the waste beyond the cutting point. It's all close enough, I'll grant you, but my fingers are never in front of the blade.
Thanks for commenting though, glad people are paying attention to safety :) Best wishes.
a hand saw😉
Or a hand plane
Can I ask os this a six inch or eight onch grinder?
"is" !!!
It's a 6"
@@SteveMaskery Thanks for the info. Just retired and want to fulfil a lifetime’s ambition and do some woodworking so trying to kit out a basic workshop. Perhaps also do a bit of woodturning. I have a six inch grinder so if it is good enough for you I’ll stick with it!
Hi Steve. Is this your new French workshop?
It might be, who wants to know? :)
