Ken and other forum responders,
       That is my model EXACTLY. The non-threaded L bolt is the same and the two holes in the opposite end of the top plate are the same. I was hoping not to have to engineer some jigs myself, but in light of the responses to my post, that may be the only solution to my problem. I am willing to "customize" my machine to accommodate accessories. My machine is drill driven, which I do not mind. I have a grinder that I can install a leather honing wheel, so that issue is not of great importance to me.  My stone is a natural stone with very little to no wearing of the surface. It is a fine machine and seems to work well, except for the grinding accessories. I will contact the customer support of Tormek and ascertain if they have a suggestion or solution to this problem.
   Thank you for  your and the other responders assistance.

I am new to this forum. I have inherited a ST250 machine with no accessories. I only have the L bracket over the wheel. I  am a new wood turner and would like to use this machine for my sharpening needs on all my turning tools, planning and joiner knives and some miscellaneous items as well. I need some guidance as to which, if any, of the currently produced jigs etc. will fit my machine. I do not want to invest a lot of money only to find the new jigs are not compatible with my machine. If the new accessories will not work on my machine, then are there any sources that may have the old ST250 accessories or accessories that may work on the ST250, available? I've tried EBay, Craigslist, Tormek web site and several other sources, all to no avail. Thanks in advance for any assistance the forum may render.
