Hey Rich,

Thanks,

Jeff,
I was refering to Steven's "after" photo, not the before photo.
It looks like he has a new decal from the slanted case mounted on the old square case. Dosen't look like it conforms to the wheel.

Clem, that is the old "function" sticker. It doesn't have a scale.

Steven,

Does the wheel mesuring scale actually measure the wheel or is it just there for decoration? Nice restoration.

Here is the after photo! I'll post the before when I locate it! It is an attachment!

Thanks, Jeff.

How do you get time enough at a show to answer questions?

Are you at a show this weekend?

General Tormek Questions / Sharpening a paper cutter
October 20, 2006, 04:35:37 PM
I have an 8X10 paper cutter whose blades are in pretty tough shape.  Can I use the Tormek to get it back into working condition?

If so, how and what jig(s) do I use?

One blade has a bevel and one looks flat (square).

Thanks,

Clem

In reply 4 and 8 there is a reference to pictures. I don't see how to display the pictures, or have they been edited out?

"However, what happens if you catch an embedded nail or get too close to your chuck, or just plain drop the thing on your concrete shop floor?  The only way to reshape the SpindleMaster to its factory shape is to use the SVD-185." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jeff,

I never have any embedded nails and certainly would never get too close to my chuck. Yeah right! :)

I think I like the bevel sharpening option, since I have the right tool to sharpen and polish the bevel. I might still have to polish the flat of the Spindlemaster after I sharpen the bevel to get rid of the burr.

I just got a SpindleMaster and what I was told about sharpening was to use a diamond stone on the FLAT side for a few strokes. No need to grind/polish the bevel!
