I (and I stress 'I') must be doing something wrong!
I am a newb to the t7 but not the concept of grinding/honing.
I cannot get the wheel to cut at a rate that is acceptable. I just spent an hour on one 6 inch jointer blade. My neck and back are killing me (machine height is low as demonstrated and specified.). When doing chisels it seems to work ok, but with the planer/jointer blade attachement it is taking forever.
The blade I just did was dull, and had been hand hones low on one corner. No major dings.
The only way I can get it to cut with the jig at any acceptable rate is to dress the wheel rough. Seems like I'll go through the wheel in too big a hurry to be the right approach. I freshen the wheel with the stone and it is a little better.
I need some serious help on this one. What am I missing. I'm concerned that the wheel looks to load up very quickly. I'd post a pic. but don't see how on this site.
Someone save me...I want to love my T7.
