Ladies and Gentlemen, children of all ages. I hope you appreciate this.
This is the lesson of a Master. Thank You once again SN and congrats on 900K.
As an oboist that has been making oboe reeds for 49 years, I have had to learn a lot about getting sharp edges. I've done the self-adhesive sandpaper, oil stones, water stones, and grinder. I still haven't gotten up the nerve to drop 1K on a Tormek, but I know it's in my future. The one big advantage of the Tormek (and other circular grinders) is the concave or "hollow-ground" surface that it leaves. It's much easier to touch up an edge on a stone if it's hollow ground--no need to either grind away tons of material on the original bevel or hope for the correct angle on a micro-bevel. (My first oboe reed teacher insisted I buy a "flat bevel" knife. Oh how I wish he had suggested a double-hollow ground knife like the venerable Landwell.)
Hi obo
You can also consider using (or making) a whetstone convex. This won't match the grind exactly, but will keep the edge nice and thin.
@@DerekKraanHuh? That would turn your straight cutting edge into a rounded cutting edge, woulddn't it? I don't think he is talking about gouges here...😊
@@ErickvdK turn 90deg
Your explanation was cutting edge! Most YT channels are quite dull but you have a way of teaching that is razor sharp!
You're just trying to chisel your way into Stumpy's good graces.
Lol
Sharpening is a superpower.
Crystal and I had our 45 anniversary yesterday . And I just want to wish everyone a Blessed 4th of July . Great video start with good
chisels .
very brave of you to post a sharpening video. People love to debate this way too much. Working sharp is fine for me.
I used to like Worksharp (they are a good company), but I feel like they abandoned the woodworking market when they stopped offering their platform attachment, which made it easier to sharpen more than just chisels.
@@StumpyNubs I think he meant "working" sharp as in not razor sharp, but functionally sharp.
The opening segment isn't even done yet, and I'm prepared to loudly declare everything he did was wrong. Even the things that I will say he has to do instead, since I won't watch long enough to see him address the exact things I said 😉😂
@@StumpyNubs I like my Worksharp but they could have done so much more. Not only do they not offer the platform, but the machine itself can't handle the wider blades of the x-1/2 plane irons, so all that it 100% free hand. They could use Cubitron discs as well for much faster work and better value. They could even release CBN discs. But they seem happy to just rest on their laurels. Disappointing.
@@myfavoriteviewer306 well played sir!
You're my boy blue, one thing I got good at is sharpening. I can get a piece of metal razor sharp after getting into woodworking. One hobby returned a valuable skill
It took a lot of getting use too but once you dial it in the drill press is my go to now for sharpening. Love your channel it’s helped me so much in my woodworking
Excellent video. Very informative. Agree that sharpening is a foundational skill in the workshop. I look at sharpening before starting work as a warmup. Gives me a chance to get in the right mindset for what is to come. Thank you very much.
Thank you, James. Great information! 😃😃😃❤❤❤
another good product in those discs,James Wright recently did a sharpening video where he got it sharper using the same grit by honing parallel to the edge not perpendicular using a much more expensive jig,a more complicated system than the one you showed.Parallel sharpening is sharper and easy with your system
Saw that bloody finger, apparently that chisel was sharper than expected :P
I laughed as it was shown right after he asked what is the pros or cons using that method.
After watching a lot of videos on sharpening I believe it was also covered on the site the use of CBN wheels.
It seems like a lower cost solution at the time, but ultimately it turned out to be just as expensive as using the TormeK
Doing lathe work requires a lot of different type of angle set ups.
He did not mention, but the glass should be a hardened glass, not easily broken.
Always a pleasure listening to your presentations James. I’ve seen all three separate videos in detail you previously posted and this video summarizes them nicely and reminds me why I bought the drill press wheel system (still waiting to build the jig), good job in merging them into one video.
Informative, useful and useable. Once again I appreciate what you share. Thanks 👍
Another great video, well done sir! You make it look so easy but I know that comes from experience. No matter how many different videos I see of yours you always give great advice and knowledge to help in the craft and for that I say thank you! Can't wait to see more and as always, stay safe and Happy Building!😁
Digging the Norm Abrams look!😁
Abram. There's only one.
Extremely valuable and interesting video! Thanks.
I picked up the drill press kit when it was featured here a few months ago. I’ve loved it for my turning chisels. Took a few tries to learn how to ride my bevels correctly, but now it’s great for touchups.
I might work my way up to a Tormek eventually 😅
Thank you. Lots of great tips. Much appreciated 🐝
Thanks James, a great summary / overview !
I really enjoy your videos. Congrats from Mexico.😁
That Drill Press trick saved me countless hours this past winter. I use it to hone my Turning tools.
Strange
Great sharpening primer! Thank you!
Great job James. Thanks for sharing wit us. Fred.
Great video James Thanks for sharing. I’m new to this and still learning but videos like this are so helpful Thanks for sharing
Solid content pal... Much appreciated
Great video, as always.
Thanks for all the tips, James! 😃
Really valuable information!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I got a set of diamond honing plates cheap from Amazon. I feel like they're a step up from sandpaper and work pretty well with a bit of effort and practice. I think my next upgrade will be to something like a Tormek, but maybe hacked together with less expensive components. Thanks for the useful info!
Blood at 7:57 says it all. Excellent sharpening video.
I am impressed by the EZ Sharp system.
Nice over view of your previous videos. Glad you have links to them in the description. Surprised you did not mention the intermediate sharpening device between the sandpaper and Drill press method, the M-Power SBS Diamond Sharpening System. Perhaps the M-Power system is really between the drill press method and the Tormeck. Either way, I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Really digging the new bird that bit of grey gives you a nice distinguished look
Not to alarm you, but it's actually a beard.
@@falxonPSN I know it auto wrote it as Bird, I just chose not to edit the comment after I posted it. I know how to spell beard but thanks anyway
I bought a knock off Tormack 10" wet stone sharpener ( King). After I tweaked a few things it is amazing to use. Fast to use amd sharpens amazingly.
Great video!
Thank you for another helpful video!
I use my chisel only every 3rd project or so. My handplane gets much more use so I sharpen it quite "often". Every few months or so. But sharpening by hand was really easy to learn and it adds variety to the work process.
Nice content stumpy 💚🇬🇧🌱
Good info‼️
Sometimes I'll take a quick strop with some cardboard. It works surprisingly well.
thank you
I poped for the Tormek. Not cheap, but as versital as anything out there.
Versatile
And slow.
Sir always 🙏 love your information teachings as a ronin I look to all you online folks for lessons 🎉what is the deal with the Japanese plane 😮😮😮and tournaments they have for planning the perfect 👌 strip that's how sharp I want all my tools ,keep up great 👍 post
Good info. Should also mention that full tools can lead to injury.
Can't beat tormek
Woodworking and I just don't get along. I just like to watch your videos!
I saw the thumbnail and took a hammer to the edges of all of my dad's chisels!
Edit:
But now that I've watched the video I'm a bit unsure what the point of doing that was.. Does it harden the edge or something? They just seem dull to me.. Also, I don't have sandpaper finer than 320, and no glass or something like that. I hope I don't need it, since it's his birthday tomorrow and I want to present him with the new and improved chisels before he takes them to work! ❤🎉
Looking younger every vid my friend!
Pop would say. "Slow and steady for sharp and ready" when sharpening chisels and plane blades.
I've gotten pretty good at clamping my chisels and knives into a jig and using those narrow diamond sharpeners in hand like a file to get really sharp edge. I start with medium and work up to XX-fine and then strop. Crazy fast and no mess. Not perfect, but neither am I.
there was a quick view of blood on his finger around 8 minutes. He really did make them razor sharp!
If anyone could treat me to a tormek i would be forever greatful
The ultimate is not a machine as shown at all, ultimate is a set of good quality stones and developing the skills to use them properly.
I love that old old hammer. I got one too, from an old guy who got it from an old guy.
Lol
Surprised you didn't talk about the Worksharp as an option. I have two of them, and they work great. Somewhere between the drill press discs and the Tormek.
I've found it's faster to use the carbide wheel and leaving the stone at fine grit. Especially if I actually need to move metal
Skip the sandpaper and go straight to a whetstone. Cheapest solution long-term and you can sharpen any blade on them, kitchen knives etc etc.
I use your favorite tool mostly, a Porter Cable belt sander. Don't judge me I am a door carpenter not a wood worker and if I spend any time sharpening a chisel I will run it into a nail immediately afterwards. EVERY TIME!
Lol
Thanx 4 your honesty
I use some water stones i got as a kit. Diamond plates are easier and last longer i wager.
But even water stones doesnt take too long to sharpen a tool.
Looks like the hammer sharpener is the easiest 😂 Great video!
Lookin like Al with the beard……lookin good
whats funny to me is if i speed the video up to 1.5, he sounds like he's talking at a more normal rate. i have to up the speed to enjoy these videos.
Super helpful! Sandpaper!
Enjoyed this sharpening video, as you kept it simple and straightforward. Any opinion on using a secondary bevel? Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
That's essentially what I'm creating when I lift the handle to strop.
My favorite tools to carve with are gouges. Do you have advice for sharpening them? I feel like I can do an OK job but, I struggle with the radius. Thanks for all the great information!
I've done it by hand with a diamon stone and strop, and I've done it with a Tormek. It takes some practice. One thing I learned fast was to concentrate more on the tips of the wings and less in the center of the curve.
If you are using sandpaper, it must be glued and pressed hard into whatever surface you are using. If you can see the paper bulge around your blade when you press it down, it won't sharpen correctly.
Will you PLEASE post a video of how you sharpen your plane blades using the Tormek T8? I have tried and tried, but I always end up making them skewed.
Your square-edge jig (SE-77) is adjustable. Assuming the tool is straight in the jig, you can adjust it's bias to one side or the other with the two little knobs. A fast way to do that is to color your bevel with a Sharpie, then move the stone by hand to see if it rubbing the color off evenly. Adjust the jig as needed. It only takes a minute or so.... Also, there is a little trick to locking down the bar consistently. It's shown in this video: th-cam.com/users/livewMATay8ITE8?si=0ERpa2eazSJCS3-a&t=1104
Love my Tormek
I don't exactly know why I feel compelled to emphasize something in this video but here I am doing so.....when Stumpy said "plate glass" he meant plate glass......you can't use a pane of glass you get at the home center that's meant to replace a broken window pane.
Great video Mr. Nubs. I'm wondering why you did not insert another option (sharpening stones) but alas, it's your video.....who am I to ask?
most teachers nowadays need to learn to enunciate, the style and delivery from him.
It's Al from home imrovement! Just kidding. Thanks for the great info.
*what you did with that hammer isn't dulling, it's work hardening ;)
How does changing the grit of the stone work?
OMG I cringed when you banged on that chisel with the hammer! 😂
By the name of your video I thought you were going to talk about impact hardening the edge !!;😂
Have you used the drill press for back flattening? That's where I spend all my time and energy on new tools and it's frustrating
Try this: th-cam.com/video/dN9GHpwGnug/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6cjXlBM2yto1y_LG
No fingers were hurt in the making of this video. 7:57
Using a legacy Tormek, does the polishing compound work after a few days, when it turns white?
It will work, but if it's really dry it can flake off. You can add a very fine film of light oil to it to soften it up again. Like 3 in 1 oil.
I've wondered (and I thought I'd ask before trying it) if it would be possible to add a water receptacle and an appropriate sharpening wheel to an ordinary bench grinder and get the same effects as using a Tormek.
I think it would spin way too fast and throw water everywhere.
Is there any truck or method to sharpening curved chisels like gouges and paring chisels or is it just getting good at free handing
With skill, it can be done free hand. There is also a Tormek jig for it which makes it pretty easy.
No need for adhesive for sandpaper. Spray the glass with water. The sandpaper will adhere fully but easily lift right off.
I still have PTSD from a guy I worked with putting a knife edge onto a planer bit and then wondering why it wouldn't cut. I did manage to file away the damage, and get the job done, but that pretty much ruined the bit.
If you had to choose between the Tormek or CBN wheels what would you pick? You seem to love CBN wheels so I'm surprised they didn't get mentioned here.
You can get CBN (and diamond) wheels for the Tormek.
I guess I qualify as an old-timer due to my age. Does anyone beside me still use soft Arkansas, hard Arkansas, then hard black Arkansas stone to sharpen? Takes the same skill as sandpaper and leaves a beautiful edge.
My Work Sharp has worked well for many years. It wasn’t that expensive but the sandpaper discs are getting expensive.
Buy cheap (3-4USD) diamond plates from AliExpress and glue them with UV glue to plate glass. It will last for years.
As a Cabinet maker myself, that was a cruel and unusual way to upset me, seeing you hammer that chisel edge!
Lol
well, you must have a magic tormek... I've spend half an hour on getting a chisel just a bit sharp on them, they"re so excruciatingly slow, which is why I went with diamond stones....
Lift the end of the handle to lever more pressure against the stone. It works wonders!
7:59 OMG, blood ... I 'll faint !!,
I didn’t missed or it was left out the cons of the tormek. Is initial cost really the only con? Where should a fair retail price be around?
Daily setup and space are considerations. Getting and later emptying the water seems easy in thought but could cause some hesitation in use. If you don’t have dedicated space, hauling out a somewhat heavy machine that takes up shared space could be another point of hesitation. The sandpaper/glass system will probably be close by and ready to use, so you may be less likely to postpone a necessary sharpening. I do use both systems.
I just use the whetstone I use for my knives
1000 grit and 6000 grit
They all get razor sharp
What do I do when I can't tell if my chisel is fully seated because the bevel is rounded? Most of my chisels have rounded bevels and I've been largely unsuccessful sharpening them.
I love coarse grits!
Especially with cheese and shrimp - mmmmmmm 😂
I appreciate your no-nonsense approach, but about these sharpening videos - I have an axe to grind. No, really. Can you please show us how to sharpen curved edges like carving gouges, axes, etc?
You didn't mention the main con of the last option. The cost.
After 20 plus years dabbling in woodworking and hours of video watching on sharpening I stink at sharpening. Oh and also I have spent a fortune on every sharpening system known since the cave men.
You have to pick one method and stick with it. You'll get better if you don't jump around.
Could you use planes on the drill press kit?
Taylor Tools doesn't recommend using the drill press kit for plane irons. That said, I use mine for my block plane, which has a 1 1/2" wide iron, with decent results. It puts a tiny bit of camber on the bevel, but not enough to cause issues. Using it with wider irons would lead to more camber.
Disappointed you didn’t include the Work Sharp. I made the Blue Collar sharpening station years ago & still use it today.
I am disappointed that Worksharp seems to have abandoned the woodworking market by discontinuing their wide blade platform and their Tormek jig mount. It's basically just a chisel sharpener now.
