General Tormek Questions / Mini turning tools
August 30, 2006, 08:47:37 PM
The main turning tools I use are short (mini turning tools). I am finding
they are too short for the various jigs; the skew just comes out of the SVS
50 jig just enough to show the blade edge. The gouge I use is too short for
the SVD 185 and using it in the short jig, I can't roll the jig side to side
enough to get the edges.

Is there a way to sharpen them on the tormek (shy of attempting to do so by hand)?  At this point, it looks like I am still stuck using a dry grinder unless anyone has any experience sharpening short turning tools.
