Turning Tool Setter TTS-100
The patented Turning Tool Setter is the key to the Tormek Sharpening System for woodturn-
ing tools. It enables you to exactly create and replicate the edge on your bowl and spindle
gouges as well as on your flat or oval skews with either a straight or a curved edge. It works
in conjunction with the Gouge Jig SVD-186 and the Multi Jig SVS-50.

How Does It Work?
Three factors determine the shape of a gouge or a skew; the jig setting (JS), the protrusion (P)
and the distance of the Universal Support from the grinding wheel (hole A or B). By controlling
these factors and repeating them at each sharpening you will get an exact replication of the
shape and edge angle every time.
