Thanks guys.
Ken, I took your advice and I've ordered the Sharpeners school in a box set.

General Tormek Questions / Diamond stones vs standard stones
May 29, 2019, 04:30:29 AM
I have a few questions for all you tormek experts out there.
I just recently received my Tormek T8. I ordered the SB250 wheel and the Japanese water wheel (SJ250) with it. The SJ250 is on back order currently.
I have a few questions about what I should do for wheels. I thought that I had a good handle on it, but now that I'm using it, I'm not so sure.
Should I cancel the SJ250 and get one or two diamond wheels instead? One of the things that I'm doing is making the initial secondary bevels on knives that I have made and I'm finding that the SB250 still takes a long time to do this. Should I have been ordered a diamond wheels instead?
I thought I also saw a post somewhere here where Wootz said something about not using the SJ250 in favour of diamond wheels, but when I tried to look for it I was unable to find it.
I am also planning on opening a sharpening business to do knives, scissors, shears and such (I have ordered a hone and I will be taking training to do the beauty Shears). For this application which wheels would be best? 🤔
Thanks in advance.

Knife Sharpening / Re: Probable new 400 bar T-universal run

That's great news! Does anyone know when they would be released and how to get one? I'm assuming with a limited run that they would not be available at all dealers.

I would be interested in one of the jigs.

Scissors Sharpening / Re: What about barber scissors?
May 02, 2019, 04:18:11 AM
Oh that's a shame! I'm waiting for my T8 to arrive, so I've been reading everything on these forums in preparation. Since mentioning my purchase to a friend she asked about hairdressing shears and I told her that I didn't know. She has since contacted me and told me that she has "lots" of other hairdressers who want their scissors done as no one locally offers this service.
