This’s the best diy making of a honing wheel I’ve seen. Thank you for making and posting to KZfaq.

@user-xz1rl8hr2l Жыл бұрын

First one showed missing parts. Second one was complete. It's a working bench grinder kzfaq.infoUgkxxC8HPnl24fu0XhMU_nbmWNEUoK1RMHXk . One thing I like alot is that it's surprisingly quiet. I don't feel like I'm sacrificing any rpms or power for the quietness either. All in all it's a very nice machine. No vibration whatsoever.

I’ve watched a lot of the bench-grinder type videos on how to sharpen knives. This is by far the best. Great ideas (e.g., simply spinning the base around; inverting a jig saw where one doesn’t have a band saw, placing a layer of wood over the leather to prevent fraying while cutting), and adding a strop to the second wheel location just took it over the top. Great work. This will be my build model. Much appreciated. 🤙

The grinder not being secure to the table is asking for trouble. Roll up those sleeves, better yet...NO sleeves. In an instant, an avoidable accident can be a life changer. I'm saying this with 34 years of Operating Room Trauma experience. Great video and idea. Thanks. Love and Peace.

If your grinder is walking the wheel needs to be dressed or replaced, shouldn’t he sharpening on a walking grinder period

Very good video. This is what my family and i have been doing for 20+ years. You showed everything very well. Great job. The one difference between your build and ours is we normally use mdf, all of the little nooks and cranies in the mdf help the abrasive have a place to stick and stay, but ive used ply as well. I just personally like the mdf better. Anyway again great vid. Wish this would have been around 30 years ago when i was just starting to learn about carpentry, and making things.

Hey, that's a brilliant idea..! I thought about a wet grinder, buffing wheel and what not to do the job. Even had an SCR in mind so it would turn slow enough. Now I see it can be done much easier. Thanks for sharing.

@AereForst 6 жыл бұрын

Followed this step by step and my knives are razor sharp now. I used a router to cut the disc along with a circle cutting jig. Cutting it with a jigsaw failed because the chisels just exacerbated the minor irregularities of the disc edge. That led to a whole lot of vibration. After I cut a proper disc the vibration was gone. I also just bought a six inch leather stropping wheel because the cost was similar compared with buying the leather and doing it myself. The bench grinder I used was a $41 Wen model from Amazon. Great setup. Thanks

If you want to sharpen an axe, hop in your car and drive at about 60mph. Open the door and lean out with the axe handle gripped firmly. Drag the axe along the road. For the other side of the axe blade, place a brick on the accelerator, lean over and open the passenger door. Steer the car with your foot while you sharpen the other side. If you do this at night the sparks are really cool, plus you see the glow from the headlights of approaching cars.

Like how you produced your set up found it interesting to watch, you might find it better to use Aluminium Oxide instead of Silicon carbide which is generally used for non ferrous materials also cheaper, alternatively use a standard GC120 JV1A grinding wheel which will last a lifetime just grinding knives.
