Thanks to all for the recommendations. I went to a dealer near me (shout out to Tim, the owner of the McFeely's in Aurora) and he put me in touch with the right SME. I went with the T-8 system. I added a diamond wheel since I have a few HSS tools. I added the Woodturners kit and both sizes of centering knife jigs. I may add the square edge jig if it seems like I need it.
Thanx,
Jim

I've decided to take a second mortgage and join the club. I think I like the T-8 Custom version but I'm not very bright and get distracted by shiny things. I will use this thing to sharpen wood shop tools i.e. planes, chisels, wood lathe gouges and chisels. I'd also like to be able to sharpen knives from expensive kitchen knives down to my trusty, rusty Swiss Army knife. Does anyone have recommendations as to the base unit and the apprpriate fixtures and attachments I might want to consider?

Thanx,

Jim
