Dutchman's work is fundamental to our knife setting procedures. By all means, do whatever you have to to download/print it. It will serve you well!

Agreed.  Much appreciate all you are doing here.  Very helpful.

Ton gave us a clean high-resolution version of his booklet, you can get it from our website:
Ton Nillesen trigonometry for Tormek grinder

Thank you.

I have developed a method for simple adjustment of the grinding angle with the knife jigs SVM-45 and SVM-140.
Coarse adjustment is done by setting the distance of the universal support to the stone in steps of 5mm.
The fine adjustment is done with the adjustable stop of the knife jig.
The required adjustments for a certain grinding angle are listed in tables.
Tables are made for stone diameters from 240-180mm, in steps of 10mm

The method is documented in PDF-files which can be downloaded from Dropbox:

"Grinding angle adjustment Booklet.pdf" should be printed two-sided on A4 paper.
You can then staple and fold it as an A5-booklet. It should also fit on 'US legal' size.

"Grinding angle adjustment A5 serial.pdf" , is the A5 serial version, for storing in iBooks on iPad.

I have updated the file "Grinding angle adjustment Booklet.pdf"
because the text was not aligned correctly with respect to the papersize.

I can view all the pages in the drop box link except for the chart itself.  I am getting error 404. 

Thank you in advance.
