Hello Ken

Thanks for the info.  I bought my Tormek at a good price then purchased the jigs I need for my woodturning tools.  At some point I'll probably decide to upgrade but having moved home and having a new workshop to fit out it's not a priority for me at the moment, too busy  :).  But I do certainly enjoy using my machine to keep my turning tools sharpened and acknowledge the simplicity and most definitely the non-obsolescence of Tormek, as you say.

Appreciate your welcome too.

John

Many thanks cbwx34 for the info and very prompt info and pleased to hear that.

if I need a new main shaft, just wondering whether there's a different length for my older model?

Thanks,
John

Hi, this is my first post on the forum.

I'm enjoying getting good, repeatable profiles on my bowl and spindle gouges, though I'm still learning.

My question is whether the diamond wheels (200mm) will fit on my model?  Axminster stock them and I was thinking of buying a 'Fine 600 grit' wheel.

Thanks in advance,
