Free Rotating Bases in North America?

Looks like all Tormek dealers are including a free rotating base with T8 bundles until end of the year.

For those with only one machine, the rotating base is a very useful accessory!

Yes, you right, but for original bundle only, not custom bundle... for one place I know this specifically, not sure about all.

Yes.  I just purchased a "Holiday Bundle," which included the rotating base for no extra charge, but it was $20 less before Christmas, so I guess "free" isn't the right word.  I figured if nothing else, it would be less lifting (not having to turn it around 180°) when it comes time to strop. 

Thanks for the heads-up.  That's a ca. $65 base depending upon whom you purchase from. 

Should have mine by the 11th of January, '22.  I'm excited and reading all I can before I receive it.

Sparky,
During your studies, be sure to watch the online classes on the Tormek you tube channel.

Thank you, Ken.  I have.  I received my unit a few days early, and have been taking it slowly.  I want to everything right the first time rather than learn from my mistakes.  The handbook, the Tormek DVD, and You Tube and this forum seems to have everything I need. 

I've got a question that I'm going to create a thread for rather than hijack this one.

Larry,

One of my photography teachers had a favorite quote (from a Chinese fortune cookie), "When you are in a hurry, dress slowly". When you are sharpening, concentrate on the tool or knife in your hands. Each tool you sharpen can be a learning experience. Do not move on (within reason) until you have learned the lessons that tool offers.
