MB -102 multibase honing angle T4

[Digi]

Hello i am new here from Belgium

I have a tormek T4 that I bought to sharpen knives and I would like to do supportive honing and would buy the MB-102 support for that. Now I'm wondering how to determine the angle on the small honing wheel which is diameter 145mm and the tormek WM-200 angle setter only goes down to diameter 150mm.
Greetings Dietger

Use a calculator.  Not only does it answer your question, but the Anglemaster doesn't account for blade taper from spine to edge... a calculator does.

Hello thank you very much for the info! I think this will indeed solve my problem.I will definitely try the calculator and measure the distance from top USB to the top of the wheel, thanks!
