Tormek wheels bi directional?

[Scotty]

Was wondering.....can the grindstones be mounted to turn in either direction?

Scotty,

Two constraints; The left hand EZYlock thread would be going in the wrong direction. The grinding wheels are only recessed on one side.
However, with sleeves for the universal support bar on both sides, it is easy to use the Tormek grinding in either direction.

Thanks.
My Sg 200 and Sj200 age "slab sided".
No apparent difference except the label.

Scotty,

I double checked and looked at both my SG-200 and SJ-200. Both of my wheels have an indent of about 3/16" on the inner third of the side with the label. I have never seen a Tormek matrix wheel without an indent. I do have a non Tormek 600 gritmatrix wheel which has no indent.

Are you sure that your wheels are Tormek wheels?

Oops, my bad.
Should have checked and verified before I submitted this post.
Thanks
