Jeff,

This brings up a question.  When using the stone grader, is it acceptable to just keep it in one place, applying good pressure on the stone in order to clean up the wheel, or should one move it back and forth.  As I move it back and forth, I notice the stone grabbing some, so now I try using the support arm to stop the stone from getting away from me.

Hmm...

Jeff, In my exuberance to sharpen a tool with my new Tormek, I didn't notice the leather stropping wheel should be conditioned.  I just put the honing compound on it.

So, can I now try conditioning the wheel, or is it a loss?
