Hello cliff What size diamond wheel is that your using?

Did you have to reverse the motor direction to clockwise . If so, how?

Would live to know more about this. Also if you plan on making them for sale, or maybe putting together a FIY kit that we can buy and do the same?

New bladesmith here. I can make decent knives, but what I really struggle with is sharpening. I have a 1x30 with that same guide. What rpm do you like for your machine? Although mine is fixed speed, I can install a variable speed device. Thanks

what brand is that new model?

The master!

@16:55 you mention that 2nd machine is slightly higher. What angle is he first machine? What angle is the second machine?

As an artist that works in polished stone; I can see the benefits of higher grits. My final polish on most stones is 14,000 grit, some up to 50,000 grit.

Always impressed with you methods and the speed at which you are able to get those amazing results! Thanks for sharing!

Isn't the red ScotchBrite wheel 240 grit? You deburr with that rather than the ScotchBrite 600?

What is the last wheel and do you sell it?

Can't find these wheels on the net. What is the search term or do you sell these? Well done sir

Fast quick qnd to the point!

Noice!

Even in a professional setting ... This looks dangerous.

Another great video. I would like to know more about measuring edge angles. What is the 0 degree on a knife and also on a scissors? A 30 degree on a knife is different than a 30 degree on a scissors. Is 90 degrees always the belt angle? Once you mentioned that a scissors edge had a 0 degree angle, but if the belt angle is at 90 degrees, wouldn't the angle perpendicular to the belt be a 45 degree angle? That is a video I would be really interested in. Thanks for sending me 3 scotch-brite belts. I have yet to use them to remove scratches on a Coup Coup machete and a Colombian machete restoration. Have a great day!

Just found your page a few days ago. My question relates to your power source as I don’t hear a generator running?

That was smooth! Good flow you got going there! Keep up the good work! Sincerely, JS

You have an awesome setup!

I do these occasionally for my biggest commercial client, good to know I came to the same conclusion on how to sharpen them. I take much longer though 😅

New store looks really good! Love this live discussion.

What a beautiful burr!

what size bolt does a 1x 30 belt sander use the one that goes to the flat adjustable metal part

Thank you, I'm glad I found your channel

GD dude, they should be paying you royalties on this machine, you are a natural pitchman. I never would have bought such a low end machine before I saw this. And you've got a part two!! Subbed!!

Why are you not using safety glasses? You only have to have a one time event that can impart your vision for the rest of your life

Excellent video ! one suggestion: twice as many passes on each grit, to better remove the scratches left by the previous grit. I use a 1x42 machine, with P120 (damaged edges), P220, P400, P1000, P2500 belts. (that's 125, 68, 35, 18.3, 8.4 microns) then coarse and fine compounds on leather. Good for kitchen knives, chisels, plane irons, gouges. Just watch the heat ... dip in water if edge gets too hot to touch.

this video was squigly lines

the video didnt play. just squigly lines

Hi Cliff I was going to order some 1/2cx12" Ceramic belts from the website but there was only a half a dozen or so grit sizes P80 to P240. I am just getting into personal knife sharpening and thought I would need maybe P80 up to maybe P1000 or P1200? Asking for your advice. Once I get into it and more comfortable I will upgrade to a 1" belt sharpening grinder. Thanks for any help Cliff.

What was the white wheel on the grinder with the 600 grit scotchbrite wheel?

That is really cool! Is it a regular transit connect or Did you make the floor lower or the roof higher ? because it seems like you have good space siting down

Sorry farmers market lol

Great video, I been thinking about starting a business, and fle market was a perfect place to shoot the video. Good luck

Don’t see a link for the vs motor? Could you send me a link. Thanks!

What’s the set up for the diamond serrated sharpening wheel?

I miss your farmers market trips. I like seeing the interactions with your customers.

How do you do your scandi blades when they come your way?

Are your Rincon grinders getting really hot? Just used the grizzley version of the same tool and after just 6 knives this thing is really hot, im betting its the variable speed recifier creating all the heat. I used it on the lowest setting so betting it generates a lot of waste heat on low. Using the belts i bought from you on it, they seem to work well.

Just got the grizzley version of the grinder was wondering what you used as your adapter to install the leather buffing wheel?

Is this consew motor a "plug and play" type device or would one need to upgrade standard household wiring?

Well done, sir!

Great Vid! TY!

here is a leather belt splitter on amzon - Aluminium Alloy Leather Strap Cutter 60MM Leather Belt Cutting Machine Leather Strip Cutting Tool with 10 Blades and 8 Wrenchs

what angle on angle guide do you use for knives?

You are a cleaver fellow. I have learned more from your channel than the dozens of others I have watched over many years. Thanks for sharing!

Good job,,, i really like your video,,,

lol, never mind I see someone has added it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Hi Cliff, thank for this video. I plan to upgrade my Harbor Freight 1x30 following this your video. I’m having problems locating the new motor on amazon. Could you please send me the link?

What happened to putting the motor you got in the description.
