Thanks for your reply and information Ken

I wish they would make the EZ lock nut with flat edges to remedy my issue but I know some people would tighten it with a wrench and would crack the stone.

I will use the e-mail address you gave me and try again.

Yes I have done that many times in the past and it always worked well but after more than a year of not needing to remove the grindstone and it has been stuck ever since.

Thanks for your reply

Does anyone have any ideas on how to remove the grindstone that is locked?
I have the T7 with the Stainless steel shaft and Easy Lock (MSK-250 Stainless Steel Shaft with EzyLock) but it has been stuck for quite a while, I have broken 2 of the Drive Wheels with Rubber Ring trying to loosen the grindstone so far.
I have tried using WD-40 (as directed by Tormek support and tried to loosen the nut using channel lock players as well but it will not budge.
I believe the nut is a left-hand thread.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks Dan

Thanks for all of you who gave such great answers  to my question on best oil to use for the honing wheel.

Does anyone know about the Tormek oil that comes in a small tube, I saw it in this YouTube video Tormek T-4 Bushcraft: Getting Started.

Do you have any pictures of your jig in use with some knives.?
Does your jig work better for small knifes?

Thanks

(You can never have too many tools)

Yes
I sharpened 5 kitchen knives (Henckels) & one pair of Scissors
All successful 1rst try & able to slice paper waving the cut in many S curves with out a catch at all
Like Butter

The Scissors are a very old pair of Swiss made Scissors That have been around since I was a kid & have been used to cut things like copper wire (until I was cot doing that as a kid) & any thing that I could think of.


Man I love this system

Yes I agree Ken

Thanks Ken

I will be picking up the Tormek® Hand-Tool Kit today but may not be able to play with it (or should I say use it) until April 4th on my birthday.   

Time to dull some knives & Scissors.
Wait a minute they are dull.

What shape is it in?

Your welcome Ken

Yes it is very well made & finished.
I keep mine in the bubble package it came with in the drawer with my planes so it does not get scratched.

Glad it works with your eclipse jig

Got to love free shipping!
Now they need to have a points system based on money spent at leeValley to go into store credit.
