General Tormek Questions / Re: T2 Initial Review
January 31, 2018, 06:09:19 AM
Something I find interesting and have not seen discussed (from a commercial sharpening perspective)
I run a T8 from a van, and it's great. However I'm finding I'm working more and more freehand as the years progress..

One ongoing issue I have always had, is the need for my van to be virtually level, wherever I'm sharpening; to keep water from ending up all over the place. I may work up to 5-6 different sites in a day (residential and commercial)
A T2 could be an interesting prospect for a freehander potentially ?

Working freehand speeds up the per-knife process substantially, but not having to constantly be refilling, and levelling / dealing with water would be a HUGE advantage for us who work on the road..   assuming the wheel and motor are up to the job.

Any comments or thoughts appreciated.
Cheers,
Josh (Sydney Australia)

Bob,

When you have a question for a particular member, you will generally have better results sending the member a personal message. This is easily done. You can either click on the member's name from a post or from the member list. (Log in first.) On the left side of the member's page is a link to send a personal message. Many members do not check the forum extensively.
