I have a few questions for all you tormek experts out there.
I just recently received my Tormek T8. I ordered the SB250 wheel and the Japanese water wheel (SJ250) with it. The SJ250 is on back order currently.
I have a few questions about what I should do for wheels. I thought that I had a good handle on it, but now that I'm using it, I'm not so sure.
Should I cancel the SJ250 and get one or two diamond wheels instead? One of the things that I'm doing is making the initial secondary bevels on knives that I have made and I'm finding that the SB250 still takes a long time to do this. Should I have been ordered a diamond wheels instead?
I thought I also saw a post somewhere here where Wootz said something about not using the SJ250 in favour of diamond wheels, but when I tried to look for it I was unable to find it.
I am also planning on opening a sharpening business to do knives, scissors, shears and such (I have ordered a hone and I will be taking training to do the beauty Shears). For this application which wheels would be best? 🤔
Thanks in advance.
