This is machined from specially anodised alloy and bolts easily
onto 4 pre tapped threaded holes on the belt arm. This jig has
the familiar round bar in ground silver steel to allow Tormek
jigs to be mounted. One length of round bar are provided. A
clever system of sliding the bar in two directions in one
operation is employed, locked with just a twist of a handle.
The jig has graduations laser marked into the body so that
consistent repeat settings can be made. There are 4 adjusting
grub screws to allow the jig to be set correctly to the belt
platter both horizontally and vertically.
Having ground the primary bevel on any tool the secondary
bevel or micro bevel actually does the majority of the work.
It is exactly what it says it is a micro bevel which can be
increased with ease each time the tool becomes dull. The
micro bevel guide is made of stainless steel and aluminium
and has the ability to accept the tool still mounted in the
honing guide, the precise angle of the micro bevel can be
easily set and with a few positive passes over a fine diamond
or waterstone a superb edge can be achieved.
The Ultimate Edge Honing Guide is perfect for plane blades,
joinery chisels etc. This fits onto the round bar which is part of
the Compound Jig. Clamping the blade tightly, both primary
and secondary bevels can be achieved if required. The whole jig
is manufactured from stainless steel and has a simple setting
screw to control the width. The LH jaw is reversible and has
twin jaws, one curved so that chisels that do not have perfectly
parallel sides (such as Japanese and old hand forged chisels)
can be clamped, the other jaw being parallel. The jaws are
dovetailed, so securely clamp thetools against the body. The
jaws accommodate blades from 3-66mm in width. A setting
gauge is provided to enable the correct sharpening angle to
be set based upon a standard projection of the cutting tool at
25mm from the guide.
Many of the Tormek® jigs work amazingly well on the 12mm bar
of the Ultimate Edge and provide the user with extremely sharp
and accurately ground tools. The Tormek fingernail grinding jig
is shown using an aluminium oxide belt with a 65mm
protrusion. See the Tormek® pages for full details.
