  • 75 yo Canadian man here. I recently discovered a new use for one of my old-faithful benchtop tools, a Meiji-brand low-power stereo zoom microscope that is essential for my continuing work soldering tiny surface mount electronic parts onto circuit boards. Magnification range 3.5x ~ 22x. I haven't yet made precision angle supports, but already my garden pruning saws and bypass pruning shears are quickly & easily made super-sharp because I can now SEE CLEARLY what I am doing to their steel cutting edges with my files, diamond hones & the like. NO more guessing at angles or testing with my thumbnail - I can SEE the edge of the saw tooth or the pruner blade and hand-adjust my angle of attack to sharpen the garden tools. 180, 360 & 600 grit diamond flats are all I need for the pruners, and fine triangle files for the saws with perhaps a final kiss with the 600 diamond, all simply held in my right hand with the dull tool held in my left, pressing against the benchtop under the microscope. It will be even better for saws when I construct a microscope support over my bench vise. I'm embarrassed to admit it took me DECADES to figure this out, but better late than never...

  • I am an absolute convert. I saw this and thought it seemed pretty cheap and I have a drill press- so why not? Built jigs with 25 and 30 degree bevels. The outcome- WOW! In 30 minutes I went through all of my plane irons and re-established the primary bevels and then finish sharpened. It is incredibly easy, it is REPRODUCIBLE- since the next time you slap that plane iron on the jig it will be exactly the same... I have previously been hand sharpening with diamond stones and roller guides- and as hard as you try every time it is a little bit different. This fixes all of that- in a fraction of the time. Really, really impressed- for about $50.

    • That's exactly what I was thinking. Although this has one advantage over the worksharp: the ability to move the jig and thus use different parts of the sandpaper. With a worksharp you're stuck going around exactly the same circle on the sandpaper every time. so every piece of sandpaper gets only a quarter inch wide track to ever be used. That's what I dislike most about my worksharp, that one crappy aspect of its design

  • I built one of these earlier this year and admit I was a little skeptical at first. But it truly does work and it is fast. I grabbed about 20 vintage chisels I'd been meaning to sharpen, and did them all in about 20 minutes first time out. All razor sharp. You may get some negative comments from people who only use a particular system, and go up to 10,000 grit......I've seen them before. Just ignore that and try this. You can be back to working sharp in seconds with perfect bevels every time. That is the real win here.

  • I commented on this about a month ago when I bought one, just to let UK viewers know it's available over here. I've now had a chance to use it. Here are the highlights. 1 It works very well indeed. I brought a couple of old chisels back from the dead in a couple of minutes. 2 For chisels that are in good condition, you can leave the finer grit and strop disc in your pillar drill all the time (I hardly use a pillar drill, I'm a guitar maker) and refresh a chisel in a few seconds. 3 The instructions are good. 4 The required jig is a cinch to make and very forgiving - I didn't bother with the recommended hardwoods but just used scraps of timber I had lying in the shop. 5 It doesn't recommend using it for plane blades, because it is a few thou out over the width of a 2 inch plus plane blade, but I reckon it is well worth a shot. If you are doing freehand sharpening or using a guide such as the veritas you are probably going to be that far off anyway. This is a really simple idea that actually works. Thank you very much for putting me on to it.

It truly lasts at least 4 times longer than the next best ceramic sandpaper, and it cuts as good as new for 90% of its working time. It is great that they included it in the kit.

  • I bought this system a few months ago and used it on my chisels. The results were great. I found it useful to color the surface I'm grinding with a sharpie so I can see exactly what area is being ground away. It took a little care to make sure that the edge I produced was exactly perpendicular to the sides of the chisel. My sense is that the acrylic discs are not perfectly flat, and this produces a slightly concave or convex ground surface. That's OK for a chisel, but I elected not to use this system to sharpen plane irons, which require a more precisely-controlled camber.

    • A slightly warped disc would not transfer that shape to the chisel. If you think about it, how could it? The low portions of the disc would merely brush across the bevel as they pass over the chisel and you would hear an intermittent scraping sound. A crooked bevel would result from the two planes (chisel's bevel and the bottom of the disc) not being aligned. Most likely your drill press table is tilted.

      @StumpyNubs@StumpyNubs7 ай бұрын
    • @@StumpyNubs Your comment about the warped disk is correct if the deviations from flatness are random. But if the disk is shaped like a bowl, with a depression centered on the axis of rotation, then a workpiece pressed against it will pick up a curved edge. The problem is that plastic stock is not manufactured to the same dimensional and flatness standards as metal stock. The effect is small in my case. You're absolutely right about the crooked bevel. The angular misalignment is in the wooden jig I made (with only a jigsaw) and not in the drill-press table. I am able to correct this by (a) shimming the base of the jig with a few layers of tape and (b) feeding the chisel into the sanding disk at a slight angle, which I adjust until the edge of the ground area is accurately perpendicular to the edges of the chisel. Annoying but effective.

    • @paulkolodner2445 I see your point, but I can't imagine the disk is nearly as likely to be bowl shaped as it might be slightly warped. Either way, that would be really rare and would be cause to return it.

  • GREAT stuff, James. You and the guys at Taytools are invaluable for the simple, yet elegantly effective solutions to common shop tasks. Curious on the 220 finish grit: Do you regularly use that as a final pass, or do you see the need to go up one more step (say 600)?

    @andrewbieger5004@andrewbieger50047 ай бұрын
    • If I was just going to do routine sharpening, I would use a higher grit. But I needed something closer to the 80 I initially used on the damaged chisel, and I didn't want to use a third grit without a third disc.

  • You can add a second angle if you want on the other side of the lift jig - I would think it wouldn't be any harder to make and if you maintain more than one angle would double the use cases.

  • An interesting method that looks to be rather effective. However, I don’t own a drill press, having neither the space nor budget for one, so I’ll file this in the ‘nice ideas’ drawer and hope to dust it off one. To be fair, I hate sharpening (or rather as James suggests, stopping work to sharpen), so tips like this are always welcome
