Gentlemen, I'm currently using two different leather wheels on my T4, one with the standard Tormek honing compound (about 3 or 4 microns) and the other with 1 micron diamond paste. My question is - for best results do I oil the leather wheel I'm using the diamond paste on ... or do I just use it "dry" with only the diamond paste? (The one with the Tormek compound is well oiled).
I'm experimenting to see if I can avoid the need to purchase a separate machine with either a paper or rock hard felt wheel ... and do everything (roughly) to Wootz's specs in his book on my T4.
