Other Feacture:
The stout DC motor features user-replaceable brushes that allow extending its life span in the unlikely event they wear down. I measured brush length before and after our 40+-hour test and found no measurable wear..
The Speed Control (top) and Torque Adjuster (bottom) give the Wet Sharpener unique capabilities.
appears to have struck the delicate balance between friability and durability. This photo was taken after the evaluation was complete, including slightly over 40-hours of sharpening. Note that the side and face of the stone remain square even though no truing cuts were taken after the first one was done before testing began.
The Grading Stone requires less pressure to change the surface (top) than I thought. I often let it "float" when grading the stone to the fine state.The coarse and fine sides (bottom) are easy to distinguish and each produce noticeable changes in how the stone grinds. Between the inner splash guard (left) and the wide-lipped tanks (right), surprisingly little water winds up on the bench. These are GOOD ideas!The Existing Angle Finder (top) and the Angle Setting Tool (middle) both have rather small numerals that are best seen tilted so the light shines off of them.Setting the tool angle (bottom) is easy thanks to the rounded back end and both wheel diameter and angle settings included on the front leg.Grinding (left) and then polishing (right) even smaller carving chisels is exceptionally fast and easy. The resulting edge is far sharper than new, plus much more consistent across the tool.The included Straight Edge Jig makes sharpening chisels (left) or even small block plane irons (right) very accurate.Optional Drawer Base
