    Hi, the other tormek vids say to keep the knife holder perpendicular to the horizontal guide rod & as your blade travels to the tip, you simply lift the handle but don't rock the knife to sharpen the tip! What do you think about that technique vs yours?

    I ordered mine the day it released! For me it was a game changer, especially because i like to do controlled angle honing. It makes going from the wheel to the hone seamless and I have been getting results around 80 grams consistently!

      @ALXSHARPEN  5 месяцев назад +1

      I just tested that the other day because I have the front vertical mount and wow it was great using the hone when the angle is perfect 👍 I agree will be a game changer for many Tormek Users

    The sharpie method works as long as your bevel is the same on each side. However sometimes from the factory they are not the same.

    • @ALXSHARPEN
      @ALXSHARPEN  4 дня назад

      Thats one reason why I generally like to do a minimum of a few reproofing stokes now since the new angle setter came out I have not been using the sharpie method much. I generally set the angle I want then do 80-600-1000 gritt on my CBN wheels the 80 stokes I monitor with my digital scope when it looks good I then go do my 600 and 1000 and I am done and in general it take me around 5-6 min a knife. It's been great

    Great review 🙂 I have a question: I noticed that you have more of a swinging movement when you reach the tip of the knife. I have seen on other videos that the knife should be lifted outward from the wheel in a radial direction relative to the wheel. What is your take on this?

    • @ALXSHARPEN
      @ALXSHARPEN  6 месяцев назад +1

      Not sure what you mean by swing I lift the handle up if you swing out you will have a wider bevel at the tip you can tip out a little but it should be very small amount

      @@canasta84 I was watching for that too, and Paul was spot on. One of the Tormek videos references a temporary perpendicular drawn line on a static stone. By keeping the entire blade edge from crossing over is the practice goal, and then becomes an imaginary line when dynamic. Paul kept the blade from crossing imaginary line.

    Great build quality, better than I expected. You do need to set the protrusion again when moving to a larger or smaller diameter wheel though. Your water stone must be about the same size as your other wheels, or you don’t mind the slightly steeper angle. This is not optional when going from grinding to the strop wheel (amazing results!).
    Thank you for the great vids!

    • @ALXSHARPEN
      @ALXSHARPEN  Месяц назад

      That's not correct I refer you to Tormek Training video below you can go to time 9:40 and you will see that I am correct. You do not need to set protrusion on every wheel it doesn't change. It would only change if you removed it from the jig. ruclips.net/user/live5T4wtZSi4rE?si=bN_QtXRgpU3A-4Of go to time 9:40

  • @danielpaquette1597
    @danielpaquette1597 6 месяцев назад +2

    You can measure the diameters of the two waterstones, divide by two so that you now have the radius. subtract the Japanese water stone from your other water stone and that is your offset for the height change of your holder. You can verify that you are good by putting the angle jig on and verifying you are still touching at three points on the Japanese waterstone setup.

    Thanks for informative video. I'm guessing that this jig also negates having to check the diameter of consumable wheels before using the WM 200-I personally find that a PITA. Definitely putting the KS 123 on my wish list. BTW, noticing the Canadian flag in the background, is that a shout out to your Cdn subscribers or is there another connection? Cheers, Kire

    Paul when you went to the Japanese stone you failed to set the distance of the knife blade as required. If the stone is a different diameter to the first stones you will not be getting a true 15° angle. Is that correct.?

    • @ALXSHARPEN
      @ALXSHARPEN  6 месяцев назад +3

      I will check but I want to say no once you set the blade measurement that doesn’t change you just adjust for angle on all the following stones. It shouldn’t change and should only need to be set once but I will check it to be sure I am correct.

    • @ALXSHARPEN
      @ALXSHARPEN  6 месяцев назад +1

      I checked and I did it correctly once you set the protrusion of the knife on your first stone you don’t need to do it again it just the measurement of the jig to the apex that doesn’t change and also why it make changing wheels fast.
