Here is a Tormek Video for gardening tools. Minute 53:53 shows a brush cutter blade sharpening.

Was it that one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BC3xlKrJUtg

Great writeup. New members will be grateful.

Thats great news. Unfortunately  helpful for nobody.

I was only able to find a capacitor for the T4 and T8 at that website https://www.sharpeningsupplies.com/collections/tormek-replacement-parts.

The capacitance of those capacitors is specified in microfarads, while there is no mention of impedance.
For the T1200, I would ask support.

What you are looking for is called capacitance, not impedance.
Tormek support will help.

Any place where you would feel ok to dump water from cleaning dirty boots should be ok for the disposal of the water from the tray.

Nice.
Here is a link to a datasheet https://www.elma-ultrasonic.com/fileadmin/downloads/Produktprofile/Produktprofile_EN/Ultraschallgeraete/Elmasonic_S/PP_Elmasonic_S100H_EN.pdf

Ultrasonic deburring is an established technology. e.g.https://www.yuasa-intl.com/deburring-system.html
However, I could not find applications of knife deburring.
Your report is interesting. Thanks.

Love it...

Q: Is it really more efficient?
A: Absolutely. Studies suggest that eliminating unnecessary hand movements can lead to a 0.0087% increase in sharpening productivity.

Even so, I cannot imagine that more honing at finer grit(s) wouldn't improve the edge. 

Agreed 

Vadim has documented his findings here: http://knifegrinders.com.au/SET/Heat_in_Sharpening.pdf

Thanks for sharing. Could you be so kind to add a link to a source for the diamond compound?

I thought it is called ACC-150 because it is a 150ml bottle.
Is Tormek giving a 250ml bottle with any Diamond Wheel?
