Finally, Something Worth Posting...

for me, anyhow! It's a new toolrest for my old style Jet 8" grinder, shamelessly copied from the Veritas. It's got an extra-large table, so when I finish the South Bend lathe bit holder, I can do a decent job of sharpening.

And the best part is, I only had to make one part, twice~!!

Very nice, it must be grinder rest season, I just finished making one for my grinder.

you may want to move the base so the top plate wont just jam into the rotating wheel

I hadn't thought about that. Where do you suggest I place it? Closer to the wheel, so the plate would be shoved back?

You mean sorta like Veritas shows it on their website? Nice catch.




Good job on the copy, woodman. Nicely done.
