Aloha everyone! Is anyone else in the community from Hawaii?

Aloha to my Tormek friends!
My Tormek T8 was delivered last week. I went for the gusto and ordered the 'Ultimate Plus Package' from Amazon (free prime delivery to Hawaii is a plus). So I now have a T-8 with tons of accessories. So far I have sharpened every knife in the house, and about a dozen chisels. I am very impressed! I am looking forward to practicing on lathe tools, and four faceted drills, and maybe after a few months of practicing and getting used to the machine, starting my own sharpening business.
I am a former Machinist and Journeyman Tool and Cutter Grinder learning my skills at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard. I am looking forward to working with and learning from anyone who likes to take pride in a keen edge.
Aloha,
Roy (Roosta)

Welcome to the forum, Roy. I am sorry you must endure such a harsh climate.    (enjoy!)

I look forward to your future posts. I think you will especially enjoy the DBS-22. And, as a machinist, you may be fascinated with some of our homegrown jigs.

best,

Ken
