Knife Sharpening / Knife Jig Prototype
Last post by Alston - Yesterday at 08:16:05 PM
I've nearly finished this prototype knife jig. I've not had chance to use it yet. I fitted the construction in whilst waiting for materials for a more pressing job.

General Tormek Questions / Re: Did ChatGpt lie to me?

The thingiverse file is for a Tormek with 200 mm grinding wheel. The T2000 was a machine with a  250 mm wheel. It would be possible to redesign the file to fit the T2000. Frankly, just purchasing the AWD-250 I mentioned earlier seems like a much more practical choice.

@boilerbengal
This is the only water container for a Tormek, I've stumbled upon. I'll leave to others to tell if that will fit your model.

What you are looking for is called capacitance, not impedance.
Tormek support will help.

General Tormek Questions / Re: Water disposal
Last post by tgbto - July 03, 2025, 02:09:36 PM
Aside from specific, occasional sessions where I combine diamonds and SG,I usually leave the water trough to rest for a day, on the lowest position. This allows for the wheel to release the water it absorbed, and for the slurry to sediment on the bottom.

Afterwards I empty the (mostly clear) water in the sink, and the wet (yet compact) slurry goes to the trash.

Thanks all for the replies / recommendations.

I will try to figure something out. I also have to consider winter time where I don't really want to have to go outside to empty the water tank.

I think it will end up being something like separating the water from the solids in two buckets of some sort. And disposing of both in a different manner. Like trashing the solids/residues and flushing the water.
