Big Bear Tools in Langley. my experience was awesome. I purchased from there after researching for a couple years. Lee Valley also sell Tormek but Big Bear Tools does the warranty work for Tormek. That's the reason I went there.

Big Bear Tools helped me on this purchase. I called in after placing my order as I was not going to be home to receive delivery (some how work got in the way  :) ) They changed the delivery address to my job so the machine would not be left on the step. No argument all they asked was for a confirmation which was easy. I will deal with Big Bear Tools again.

My T8 arrived yesterday. Thank you to Tomek and Big Bear Tools. Every thing I ordered was in the box properly packed. Fast delivery excellent buying experience. The set up was straight forward registration went very well. I sharpened a couple simple things. The sharpening went as expected and was very quick. Both items came out sharp and straight. I'm pumped!!!!

Thank you John.JBC I have watched most of these and they are excellent. They clear up a lot of errors from Tormek owners that are currently on U-Tube about jig set up and how to keep your grind straight without belly. I do believe That these two points are crucial to proper sharpening. My goal is to learn the basics and eventually be able to grind proper bevels on my leather knives.   After all at my age my eyes are not what they used to be and the repeatability feature and the accuracy of angle of this system is what I am after.
