I have this huge Hamlet roughing gouge and it will not fit in the SVS-50 because the sides (wings?) are too tall. And I can't remove the V holder because then the holding screw will not reach the bottom. Tried the platform but that seemed sketchy. Any ideas?
Would the SVD-186 work? Take a look at this web page : https://sharpeninghandbook.info/WW-SpindleRoughingGouge.html.
Dweiss,
Take your SVS-50 to your hardware store. In the drawers of hardware, you should find M6 thread locking knobs. Find one long enough to reach the bottom of your jig. That should solve your problem.
(M6 is the commonly used thread size for many Tormek parts.
