Sharpening with the Tormek SVS-50 Multi-Jig
Переглядів 150 тис.11 років тому
The Tormek SVS-50 Multi-Jig sharpens skew chisels, turning gouges and woodcarving gouges. This video shows the fundamentals of using the jig.
Sharpening with the Tormek SVD-185 Gouge Jig
Переглядів 77 тис.11 років тому
The SVD-185 gouge jig moves the axis of rotation away from the axis of the tool at an angle. This makes the end of the tool move in an ellipse relative to the grindstone surface. The result on turning tools is a grind that wraps around the side of the tool in a very controlled way. This video shows the fundamentals of using the jig, and the versatility of gouges ground this way.

Forget supermarket jar sauce. When gardens and farmers' markets are full of fresh tomatoes and other vegetables, you can make your own, without even turning on the stove or oven. It will be better than anything you could buy, and will keep in the freezer for months.

Amazing beautiful wood work. AND that is a great deal of work for a custom picture frame. I don't have the tools or patience for this level of multiple steps.
Mr. Farris, this is a great video. Thanks for taking the time to make and post it.
Thanks. 'Loved the math class.
Nice Shop, where can I purchase the rope style clamp?
I always loved the RAS
Is there anything that would be specific to pinking shears or is the process exactly the same?
Thank you for answering why a dressing stone changes the abrasive characteristics of the wet stone. I would not have otherwise figured it out.
Thanks for a good video Jeff 🎉
Not good for carving gouges, the bevel must be convex, and shharoening on a wheel, give a concave bevel, with a concave bevel, carving gouges are useless
So..... if one does not have all this specialized equipment, how can we use a miter saw, router table, clamps and glue to make a frame?
Thank you for your video. It is being used to train sharpeners using the Tormek by the Guild of Professional Sharpeners.
Where did you get your Nobex framing cord clamp? I don't see them available anywhere in the US...
The wedge angle on the Tormek SVX-150 is 6 degrees and not 10 degrees as Jeff stated at 1:34. I measured the wedge angle using a digital angle gauge. He's to be forgiven for this mistake since digital angle gauges weren't widely available 12 years ago as they are today. I bought the Tormek 2000 and the ultimate package which included the SVX-150 scissor jig from Jeff/SharpToolsUSA back in 2004.
Please do a video on axe regrinding!
That process cleaned the dinge off nicely Jeff.
How does that technique work on the textured cast iron?
I'm doing the head of the drill press now. It's not quite as nice as on smooth steel. The high points of the nubs get cut down to metal if the paint is thin...which it tends to be on the high spots. I'll have pics of the results on OWWM in a day or two.
Just bought a Tormek T8. Your tip on setting the blade angle is very helpful! Thanks
Great video and very well explained... Subscribed. Cheers Paul in the UK
I wonder how long it took Ben to grow the beard? What kind of wax is he using on his beard?
well done to the point and full of information. yes i have a tormek and it is great!
Thank you just got my T8 last week this was very helpful
Thank you for all the details. Even the acid free tape was a bonus.
A question about your antique table saw. I have an old (1987?) Craftsman table saw that I bought new. I’ve done a little “refreshing” of it lately but am having trouble getting the rip fence perpendicular to the table top. If I get it perpendicular then the rail is not parallel with the table top. Do you have any suggestions? Is there some internal adjustment I can make? Any suggestions for an after-market fence?
Steve, start by verifying that the blade is parallel to the table. Measure from the miter slot to the blade at the front and rear of the blade. If there's a difference you'll have to adjust the trunnion until it is parallel. I believe on your saw you'll find the trunnion is mounted to the underside of the table in 4 points. The holes in the trunnion brackets are slightly over-sized to allow alignment. Once you have the blade and table top aligned, align the rip fence to the table top. If the rail itself is not perpendicular to the table isn't relevant. As far as an aftermarket fence, I would watch the used market for a vintage (80s - 90s) Biesemeyer.
Sharpening Jakes for you should patcher would turn in Grindr
Best instruction video I have seen, and I bern looking at many.
Great Job Nicely Done 🔨📏📐📝👍🏽Awesome Power Tools You Got Keep Up The Good Work See You On Next Video Jett!!
The modern day flintstones sharpening jig,”A littledabbledooya!”
Metric is so much easier…
Thank you sir
Can you do this with the Japanese stone installed? Thanks
I don't see why not. Scissors do want a little "tooth" to their grind, but I think the Japanese stone should work well.
Can you do this with the Japanese stone installed? Thanks
what router bits do you recommend?
In general? I like Whiteside. If you're looking for specifics for picture frame molding, I'm afraid that is quite subjective. On this pair I just used a simple, small Roman Ogee.
Great job Jeff; only not so great sound. Did your lavaliere go dead in the charge that causes echoes? But again, the video was awesome kind Sir.
Let's hear about that curved brush! I would love one of those
jebbbrush.com/woodworker-brushes/ The company used to be Opie Brushes in Kansas City. Bought out by a bigger outfit, but kept the woodworkers brushes. Their main line is brushes for flour mills.
Nicely done, Jeff. What was the name of the finish you used again? I didn't quite catch it. Also the polishing system? I've never buffed wood before - that looked like it came out really well.
The finish Osmo Polyx Oil. The buffing system is the Beall Buffing System...three steps, tripoli, white diamond and carnauba wax.
Loved watching this beautiful woodworking! One respectful suggestion on the mounting of prints from a hobbyist woodworker married to a professional picture framer. That paper is going to move with changes in temperature and humidity. Securing on all four sides prevents that natural movement of the paper and likely will lead to rippling. Even though that “package” is tightly compressed in the frame, that paper is going to figure out a way to move! Best way to mount any print like that is with 2 small “hinges” along the top edge of the print. The print then freely hangs in the space and is able to expand and contract as needed, all undetectable to the human eye. Perfectly natural and expected in picture framing. For those times when “it absolutely has to be perfectly flat and stay that way,” the print can be dry mounted to a substrate. But that’s for another day. Thanks for another fabulous peek into the shop of an expert woodworker!
Thanks, Jim. You think I should take it apart and remove the tape from three sides?
As much of a pain as that might be, I would do it, Jeff. Twenty-some years ago, I did the same thing (although not with as beautiful wood frames), and I got the ripple. Best to carefully remove now and just attach with 2 pieces about 1” wide at the top of each print, about an inch or two in from the sides. The prints will love you for it! And it should be MUCH easier getting those glazer points back in second time around!
Thanks, Jim, I may even turn it into a short video!
I’ll look forward to that! Let me know if we can send you any supplies to make it work.
To take it to a professional level, what kind of tape should I be using?
Enjoyed the project and shop tour! I enjoy the old machines as well. Are you on owwm?
Yes, I follow OWWM daily...and the DeWalt forum, too.
@@SharpToolsUSA nice! I have 3 vintage Delta tools and 1 Powermatic. Lots of great help from OWWM!
Very talented man!!!! Nice job sir!!
Thank you, Arthur!
Great job, Jeff! Very informative and thanks for showing off all your cool old tools. The frames turned out beautiful.
I’ve never seen the math like that to figure outside dimensions for a frame. Nice!
Glad you found it helpful...I almost edited it out for being too boring.
Very informative and nicely done. Elden
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, very clear and easy to follow.
Thanks, Ryan!
so how do you find your skew angle ??
Very good video and instructions , not borin :-)
I love this Tormek sharpening system. Everything I sharpen everyone sees. Then guess what? I’m sharpening everyone’s darn tools!
This is a superb video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Hi dear am I Arslan yousaf from sialkot pakistan we made surgical instruments specialist in scissors of top quality of you are intrested you can contect me on whatsapp 00923007153876
Have had one of these for years, during which time, it has collected dust. Just retired so now have time to catch up on all the lost, deferred projects. Thanks for the great video. It will be a big help!
The grinding is easy but I have problems when it comes to the hone.
