Recommended Accessories
Attaining the correct profiles on your turning tools could transform your turning, and the advantages of using a jig are that the angles are easily repeatable, and less material is removed at each sharpening. The Woodcut Tru-Grind Premium Sharpening System enables you to sharpen all of your woodturning tools and more, with just one jig.
The tool is clamped into a holder mounted on the end of a pivot leg; the end of the leg rotates in a conical housing in the horizontal support bar. Grinding of gouges is carried out by rotating the tool from side to side whilst parting tools, skew chisels and the like are laid flat on the wheel at the correct angle. For that classic fingernail profile with swept back wings on your bowl gouges, this is the jig that will produce it with one perfect single facet bevel.
Supplied with the latest version Base Slide which features an anodised aluminium extrusion case to convert the machined base slide, designed to help keep you focused on what matters by minimising the impact of metal dust whilst also ensuring ease of movement. The Base Slide is simple and fast to set up, allowing you to accurately sharpen and quickly return to your project. A measurement scale and reference marker helps you accurately establish the position of the Base Slide and simply repeat setup. Use on either sides of the grinder for both left and right hand use; simply manoeuvre the cam lock to move from one side to the other. The Base Slide also features two pivot points for the Woodcut Toolholder, one at the rear which can be used for your Scraper tools and T-bar dresser and one at the front can be used for the majority of your tools.
An optional additional base and slide for your Tru-Grind Premium Sharpening System enables you to use your jig at both ends of your bench grinder. This can be especially useful if you have different grades of stone or you could set up for different types of turning tools at each wheel.
