By the way, the assesories are the following:

SVD-185
SVS-50
SVM-100

Hi again!

I just wanted to let you know that I bought the Tormek. It turned out to be an completely unused machine with 3 assesories included. The box had gotten wet at one point, but the only thing that had been damaged from the water was the USB. I payed about 75 usd in total. 👌

Thanks for the support, I really appreciate it!

Hi all!

Here is the answer from Tormek support :
"Hi Benny.

It is a 200 mm machine. It is a predecessor to the T-3/T-4.



Best regards,

Mats Wuolo"

Thanks for the answers everyone!

Hello Tormek people!

I have the possibility to buy a Tormek SuperGrind 1205, but i am unsure if it is a 250mm or a 200mm machine.
The seller doesn't know 

Can any of you help me out by telling me which size it is?

I have tried google, but i cant really seem to find the model at all.

Thanks.

Hi!

Has anyone tried to make some honing paste with diamond powder before?

I may want to try this.
I have two ideas.

1. Mixing the powder with some oil, maybe mineral oil.
2. Making a mix of beeswax and mineral oil, and adding the powder to that mix.

This i just for fun, i rally don't need the edge to be more shiny than my SJ-250 makes it, but i want to try anyway.

Any advice would be appriciated.

Thanks.

Hi jvh,

No, i had not seen your sheet. It looks really cool! I will try it out!

Thanks!

Wow.. No one has ever become one of my best friends that fast! You just did, cbwx34!

That was it.. I calculated wrong, i subtracted the 6mm from the calculation, instead of adding.

You just made my day! Thank you very much!

I am so happy right now!! I think i have used 40 hours on this  .
(I have made a much bigger sheet, the one i showed you guys was just a little sample, of the most important.)

Thanks again!

Hi again Ton.

I have now tried to make a spreadsheet again. But I can't seem to get it to work.
I want it to calculate the height of the USB, vertically from the top of my Tormek T8. The same way as Knifegrinders App is working. The reason why i just don't buy the app is because i would like to be able to get the measurements for both the vertical USB stand and the horisontal at the same time, and over time also the FVB. So i don't need to use the program more than once, if I want to use both (all tree) USB stands.

I can't seem to get the math right though. If I input 12 degrees per side, and set the USB to the calculated height on my Tormek, i measure approximately 18 degrees per side with the Tormet angle tool (WM-200).

I have used http://cossincalc.com/ to help me get the calculations correct.

Do you by any chance have the time to look over my spreadsheet?
It is made in MS Excel, and saved as both .ods and .xlxs.

Thanks in advance!
