Hi Ken, I just recentley got the Tormek 2. When I was taking it out of the box and doing the set up, the angle direction needle fell out of its origional set up. I dont know if I put it back incorrectly ( or even if that is possible) as the 15 degree angle should be the same either way>
I am struggling to get the knives sharp. Is it a problem because I might have re-inserted the angle pointer wrongly?
As you know I have had the T7 for a while with all the jigs, but I feel let down as the T2 is not working for me.
Obviously I can not return it as it has been used. I have the origional fine diamond wheel and the course diamond wheel for the T2.
Please help>
Good question, Bobi.
Here is how I solved the riddle with my T2: While the angle setter on theT2 (and T1) may seem problematic, once you figure it out, it is really quite simple. Don't worry about breaking it or putting it together incorrectly. Take it apart and then reassemble it several tomes. It is actually easier than a soldier field stripping his rifle, and you have no drill sergeant looking over your shoulder.
You will master this task in a very few minutes! (If I could do it, you certainly can.)
