Hi,
I've been using a 6" 3600rpm grinder with gray wheels for grinding my chisels and plane blades, and I'm looking for something better. I have thought about adding the Lee valley tool rest and the white wheel from them, or the blue Norton 3x 60grit from TFWW, both on my existing grinder.
The other path would be a Work Sharp 3000 or Tormek plastic or Jet clone or Veritas machine. These are appealing, but the much higher cost has me leary of doing this.
All my honing is done with abrasive sheet on granite with water.
I have read a bunch of older posts and feel better informed, but less decisive!
Will I regret not getting a slow speed dry or wet machine after I just get a new 3x wheel for my 6" grinder?
Thanks,
Pete P
