General Tormek Questions / Eazylock stucked
January 03, 2021, 08:31:37 PM
My Ezylock get stucked everytime I put it on. Have tested three times now. Have to use a channelock/heat it with a heat gun to get it loose every time. When I put it on I do not use any force, just turn on and let the machine do the rest.

Have investigated the treads on the shaft and the not. Cannot see any damages, but I am not an expert and do not know what I am looking for.

Store the Tormek in an unisolated house where the temperature is around 3 degrees celsius now. But I live i Norway, only hours drive from their factory, so I should work in the climate here.
Do not understand what I am doing wrong.
4 ho

Have I T8 bought in 2018. Used like 5x2 hours each year.

General Tormek Questions / T4 water spillage
July 21, 2019, 03:49:45 PM
Hello
New with Tormek. I have sharpened some knives with my new T4. Find it almost impossible to avaoid water spillage at the top of the T4. In the beginning I was not very worried, thinking that the Tormek is design for that. But have started to grow worried that it is wrong,and now I try to wipe of water all the time. Should I still be worried?. What will happend if water come inside the housing?

Tried to lift the knife but I still miss the tip. Should I freehand? When I lift the knife to much, the jig goes of the rail.

Knife Sharpening / T4 vs T8 grid hollownes
July 09, 2018, 11:21:51 PM
Hello
I am planning to buy a Tormek, but can decide betweeen T-4 and T-8. The maxium 30 min sharpening time with the T-4 is okay, but I am more worried about the hollowness. Since it have a 200 mm stone, it will be more hollow than the 250 mm T-8 stone. How much worse will the t-4 egde be compared with the T-8 egde. I have used japanese water stone for 5 years but an illness in my hand keep me from using them any more.
