Negative rake scrapper problem

[Kim]

I have been using the SVD-110 platform to sharpen my negative rack scrapper made by D-Way Tools (see https://cdn10.bigcommerce.com/s-pa1dw/products/136/images/561/CurvedNRS.75_S__95OPT600__87496.1686765450.1280.1280.jpg?c=2)

Since the SVD-110 has no positive stops, I am finding it very difficult to have an exactly consistently angle every time I sharpen.  As a result, the bevel is slightly inconsistent. The D-Way Tools are extremely hard steel. Since I end up grinding a slightly different angle, the process is extremely slow. Does anyone have suggestion on using a different platform with positive stops with the Tormek. For example, Kodiak makes a platform with positive stops, but I don't know if it compatible with the Tormek machine.

I use one of these on the Tormek, and it works great for repeatability. I think that you might find something similar at other websites.

You might want to get his turning tools sharpening video, as well, he has lots of useful tips for the Tormek. In fact it would probably be better to download and watch the video before ordering any jigs.
