Title: Glenn Lucas video on Tormek instagram site
Post by: Ken S on December 25, 2016, 12:20:43 PM
I found a short, but interesting video clip done by Glenn Lucas on Tormek's twitter site.

(Sorry, I am not normally a social media person, and don't know how to link it here.)

Is this the video? https://www.instagram.com/p/BNeh0SjBihY/ (https://www.instagram.com/p/BNeh0SjBihY/)

I didn't even know Tormek was on Twitter, as they have a Facebook and Instragram symbol on their webpage; no Twitter symbol.

Then I had to find out who Glenn Lucas was and what he looked like to figure out what video you MIGHT be talking about and find one with his image on Twitter.  Found that video, hightlight and cut the link, create a new post here, and use the globe looking icon to insert the URL.  In some cases (haven't tried all sites) you can just past the link in, and it automatically puts it in as a hyperlink.

SADW,

Sorry, I fumble with all the social media stuff. I don't have a twitter account. I recall finding the Glenn Lucas very short video from a mass email from HÃ¥kan Persson. I have requested it be posted on the forum. Glenn Lucas is also featured in one of the Friends videos on tormek.com. It's worth watching.

You may fumble, but I don't even have accounts.  There are both privacy and safety issues that to me mean they are a thought that shouldn't even be contemplated.

I agree. I also find that just this forum takes more time that I would like. I don't want to add more computer time in my life.

On the same Instagram page you can find a photo from sharpening school in Uppsala, Sweden.

The picture shows a pretty young women setting chisel edge angle using the Anglemaster. The angle setting is not correct because the corner of the angle setter base is too far from the stone.

I am considering to offer myself as a volunteer lecturer for future Swedish sharpening school.  ;) :)

Good thought, Jan. :)

I might volunteer myself if I did not have to log in to instagram.
