Looking for grinder jig design or plans

[CYC]

Hi all,
I got a grinder lately and I am looking for design or plans for a jig to sharpen the chisels and planers.

Anyone has plans or pictures?

Hi CYC,

How about looking at the Tormek manual:

A big download at 20MB but it should have a lot of useful info in.

Anybody got any advise on the O'Donnell grinding Jig?

Waka,
I have the Sorby jig with the thumbnail grind attachment. Its a lovely bit of steel, easy to set up. Only way to get repeatable grinds on bowl gouges. Piece of cake for straight chisels, too.
Cheers,
Philly

Thanks for the info, maybe I can bring a gouge or two when I try out the planes? How does Sunday 30th May suit you, in the afternoon?

Waka,
I'll put the kettle on.........
By the way, if anyone else wants to pop by your more than welcome. I live in Poole, Dorset.
Cheers
