Knife Sharpening / Colvin FVB on T8
March 26, 2023, 12:58:18 AM

I'm a NOB, this is my first post so any help would be appreciated.
I just received my Colvin FVB and installed it on my T8.
I am using the USB Calculator on the Calcapp and cannot get my numbers to match what is shown on the last page under the "Tormek Constants" for the Colvin Tools FVB Horizontal and Vertical measurements.
I am going off how I am interpreting the drawings on where to measure on the 3rd page under Instructions and Machine Variables.
For Horizontal the list on the last page shows 133mm for the Colvin FVB and I measure 137.5mm.
For Vertical the list shows 54mm for the Colvin FVB and I measure 42.5mm.
Does anyone else have a T8 and the Colvin FVB that could verify my measurements or the measurements in the table of the Calcapp?
Anyone have any ideas that might steer me in the right direction?
Below are where I am getting the examples of where to measure and what the measurements should be.
I realize they are examples only, but my measurements are way off.
I apologize if this has already been addressed.
Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
