Sharpening a paper cutter

[Clem Wixted]

I have an 8X10 paper cutter whose blades are in pretty tough shape.  Can I use the Tormek to get it back into working condition?

If so, how and what jig(s) do I use?

One blade has a bevel and one looks flat (square).

Thanks,

Clem

Do the beveled blade (the one that moves) with the scixxors jig.  On the one mounted to the base, try just cleaning it first.  If you get the beveled blade sharp, but the bed knife isn't meeting it correctly, it will need to be ground perfectly square and straitght.  You "might" get this done with the planer blade attachement, but, as Steve B. said on the Yahoo group, it might be best to draw file it.

Thanks, Jeff.

How do you get time enough at a show to answer questions?

Are you at a show this weekend?

Answering questions is all I do at a show!

Yeah, we're in Portland this weekend.
