I searched for this problem & did not find anything.

I recently got a Tormek DBS-22 Drill Bit Sharpener.
Yesterday afternoon I set it up & started sharpening a bit.
I watched the online video several times.
I set the jig up as to the manuals directions.
I used the angle of the old bit  120 degrees.
I set the clearance angle at 11 degrees.

For some reason the clearance side of the face is coming out taller than the cutting edge. The opposite of what it should be.
I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong?












 

Jeff,

Do you check the messages that are sent through the SharpToolsUSA website?

I have owned a Tormek sharpener for many years. The shaft was starting to rust, so I decided to get the EzyLock upgrade.
I started to install it today & discovered that there is a small shoulder turned on the shaft at the bearing location on the stone end of the shaft.
The shaft is smaller than the bearing in this area & very sloppy in the bearing. Both new bearings are the same size.
Is the EzyLock shaft designed to be this sloppy in the bearing?
