Folks,
The gradient of the slope is increasing!
I have been dropping the odd hint re getting a decent set of chisels for a while with SWMBO. Last night I went for it and suggested I get a set of LN's, expecting to have to scrape her off the ceiling and then compromise on a set of AIs / Victor's as I am a reasonable chap.
To my surprise, she said 'OK' and carried on reading.
So, off to APTC next week to buy them. BUT, ......
To this point I have been sharpening my Stanley Builder's specials on my Jet (Tormek clone) wet wheel which I mainly bought to slow the rate of dry wheel grinder erosion on my turning tools.
I expect this will have to stop as it will introduce a concave edge or would I still hone on the leather wheel?
What do the assembled masses suggest? I don't have 40 years of apprenticeship behind me so I expect some sort of guide will be useful also.
Many thanks in advance.
Simon
