The wheel in this video is a hard cotton wheel. However, the wheel isn’t the key to this system. It’s the sharpening compound that really does the work. The compound is formulated to melt from the heat generated by pressing the tool into the rotating wheel. Although the Nora Hall System does make quick work of sharpening v-groove tools, I have not made a video on sharpening v-groove tools specifically. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@CroakyOak I'll see that V-groove video... thank you Dude. Have a nice year.

I have no idea. You might be able to find something at leevalley dot com. Lee Valley is the company that makes and sells this jig. Good luck and thanks for watching and commenting.

@CroakyOak thank you very much for responding and that explains why I couldn't find a patent for Veritas. I'm in the UK and I can only find one company that actually sells this tool & they're out of stock. PS, I developed my tool with negative rake scrappers in mind which largely uses shallower Bevel angles and would ride up that cone burnisher even more. Mine doesn't suffer that problem. I've also incorporated a fulcrum, but mine is adjustable instead of fixed to better incorporate different scrapper profiles . Thank you again for responding and happy new year!.

@@CroakyOak PS. I can't buy this tool in the UK currently , but if it does have a patent then it'll have a patent number clearly indicated on the tool. If I know the number I can Google it & read the patent.

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and commenting.

Nope. This is a soilless mix. Just sphagnum peat moss and pine bark mini nuggets. Thanks for watching and commenting.

You’re not the first person to ask this question. Please look through the comments and you’ll find the answer to your question. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Agreed! Thanks for watching and commenting.

The grinder in this video has a 5/8-11 imperial thread. If you’re considering a purchase, check the specifications of the *exact* model you are looking at. Often the only difference from one model to the next is a single feature like the spindle thread or the type of switch. Good luck with your grinder and thanks for watching and commenting.

Definitely not! I wouldn’t even think about freehand turning any ferrous metals. Thanks for watching and commenting.

That wouldn’t work with these toolboxes. The inner profile is much more complicated than the top lip of the toolbox. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Very interesting! I would’ve guessed a compressor this size would not produce enough air to blow out any sort of piping system. Thanks for the tip and for watching & commenting.

You can find all the performance numbers for this compressor on the Makita website. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I glad this helped you! Good luck with your gardening. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Unfortunately, I have no advice as to what can be used as an alternative. Where I live essentially all the sphagnum peat moss comes from Canada. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Interesting. Thanks for the info and thanks for watching and commenting.

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching and commenting on multiple videos.

The fulcrum pin is a straight steel pin. The pins used to do the burnishing are solid carbide and are tapered. You can find the degree of taper on the Lee Valley website. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@CroakyOak thank you.

You’re very welcome! I’m sincerely glad you found the video useful. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I don’t have any place to put my plants, so they all have to stay outside. If I don’t insulate the pots -the rest of the plant remains exposed- most of the varieties I’ve tried have not survived the winter. When I’ve grouped the potted plants together and surrounded the pots with mulched leaves, nearly everything survives. Protecting potted blueberry plants from the cold is only part of the deal. Varmints, especially rabbits, can decimate unprotected blueberry plants. I’ve had rabbits get past fencing and eat younger plants right down to the ground. Good luck with your blueberries and thanks for watching and commenting.

Thank you! I’m glad you liked the video.

You’re very welcome! I’m glad I could help. Thanks for watching and commenting.

USDA zone 4. Thanks for watching and commenting.

No. This mix calls specifically for pine bark nuggets. When I find chunks of wood in with the bark nuggets, I pull them out and put them in with my yard waste. Thanks for watching and commenting.

To soft dirt.

Instead of staples try using screws with washers to hold the hardware cloth to the frame. Good luck and thanks for watching and commenting.

I’ve never used a texture sprayer. So unfortunately, I have no useful answer to this question. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I’ve never used a texture sprayer, so I honestly don’t know the answer to this question. Thanks for watching and commenting.

You’re very welcome! I’m glad you liked the presentation in this video. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Honestly, I think this is a question best asked of the manufacturer of the product(s) you are working with. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thank you. I use this technique regularly, and I’m glad this video was helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks. I’m glad you liked the review. Good luck finding the right compressor for yourself. And thanks for watching and commenting.

There is a link to the backyardberryplants.com page containing planting information in the description.

Thanks! I’m glad the video was helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting.

You’re welcome! Thanks for watching and commenting.

I have the 30 gallon pot too. It’s a terrific kettle for a solid price. I hope you enjoy yours. Thanks for watching and commenting.

The foam used in this video is called Kaizen Foam and is made by a company call FastCap. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Could you explain more what you mean please? I'm completely new to all of this😅

@astrid5870. Whenever you file, disc sand, belt sand or grind a new edge lt is usually better to have the edge towards you while use your tool of choice away from you. Otherwise you are rolling a thin section of metal over that has to be removed on the other side of the blade. That rolled metal is called a burr. This applies to knife sharpening too. With filing you may not get much of a burr but filing is only good for blades that have no stone nicks or damage. I usually grind my blades by clamping the blade in a vice so that the edge is pointed up and then grind with a 4 1/2" Harbor Freight electric grinder with sparks flying down. You can see the edge the whole time you are grinding and know immediately when to stop removing metal. Those grinders are as little as $15 and the stones are as little as $1 a piece. All the other methods I see on TH-cam are either harder to do or more costly. After 54 years at metal working in businesses and in my own auto repair shop I am not new to proper procedures on blade sharpening. I hope this helps.

I go out of my way to not get this stuff on my clothes. Although not super potent, the fish smell does linger.😯 Thanks for watching and commenting.

Interesting, I’ll have to look into that. Thanks for the tip. Thanks for watching and commenting.

You’re welcome! I’m glad you like this video. A quality and lightweight air hose and a swivel can make just about any compressor easier to deal with. Thanks for watching and commenting.

I agree! Watching metal chips spiral off a drill bit *is* enjoyable to watch. Cleaning up the mess is less fun though. 🙂 Thanks for watching and commenting.

My pleasure! I’m not a fan of extended introductions either. Thanks for watching and commenting.

De nada. Fico feliz que tenha gostado do vídeo. Obrigado por assistir e comentar.

You’re welcome. And thank you for watching and commenting.
