Title: tool vibration?
Post by: RyanArcher on January 25, 2004, 08:33:14 AM
Just got my tormek yesterday, and already put a scalpel edge on everything I can find.   My wife even aproves of the cost now that she saw the edge it can put on her $500 Japanese kitchen knives. ;)  Thanks for the awesome tool and support Jeff!  I really appreciate people that stand behind thier products.

sometimes when grinding chisels and plane irons(toward the tool),  the tool begins to vibrate.  This cannot be good for the edge and I wonder what I'm doing wrong and how to correct it.  apologies in advance if i missed something in the book or other topics posted here.

much appreciative,
-Ryan

Try applying slightly more pressure to the tool.  I think that will do it.  If not, reply back here and we'll explore some other options.
