Planer Blade Sharpening / Re: 4" JOINTER BLADES
September 06, 2012, 04:12:17 AM
Hi Ken
That is the effect I got. but I'd prefer if they were dead straight.  They cut fine, better then ever actually.
When I get a chance I'll regrind them with less pressure, as Jeff suggested.

Thanks for the reply.
I had the stops set so that about 3/8" remained on the stone at either end.
It is more likely the pressure.
I will try again and let every one know the result.

Planer Blade Sharpening / 4" JOINTER BLADES
September 02, 2012, 10:56:42 PM
Hi
Just finished sharpening my 4" jointer blades using the planer blade jig.
They came out razor sharp, but they are arced.
If you place the cutting edge against a straight edge, both ends don't touch until you come in about 3/8 of an inch.
I followed the steps in the instructions exactly.
why is this happening.
Thanks in advance for your help

Hello again.
Got the T7 today.
very well packaged.
I began sharpening my Buck knife, very simple very easy, VERY VERY sharp.
Sharpened all the kitchen knives, unbelievable how sharp they came out,
I hope the rest of the jigs work as well as the 2 knife jigs work
Tomorrow I will try the scissor jig.

More later.

Hello all
I'm suppose to get my new T7 Ultimate package tomorrow.
I'v been reading as much as I can here on your forum, hoping to take the steepness out of the learning curve.
I'm very sure I'll be asking a lot of questions in the future.
I'm very glad you have, what seems to be, an invaluable resource here.
