    Can you comment on where you got that crowned rubber idler wheel?

      I ordered a spare wheel for a Grizzly 1x30, plus an appropriate bearing, but I'd recommend buying one from Curry Custom Cutlery if you want one.

    can you please give us the exact part number of that crowned rubber idler wheel from the 1x30 Grizzly? I have one from a Wen and is too narrow. Thank you

    I also have a Toolcker 1x30 & faced the same problems.
    Using a combination of Paul's cut down angle guide & rare earth magnets on the back of the platen, I was able to get my angle guide to stay on the platen.
    I also use a magnetic light & have it attached to the platen arm & adjusted out of the knives path, which is working for me.
    Thanks for sharing!

    great solution. I received my Toolker yesterday and I also have this non magnetic platen. I actually never knew that some steels can be non-magnetic. Thank you for your video!

    Hey so im just making a new platen out of some magnetic plate steel I got from a scrap bin @ a local industrial metal supplier, does anyone know what size & thread pitch the bolts are that came with the toolcker's non-magnetic platen?

    I just hot glue my guide to the platen of mine, easy to pop off and holds it great, easy to reapply

    You did not ruin the sliding square, reassemble it & will have a 8" sliding square.
    There is also an option to drill & thread the platen for a 3mm or #6-32 screw.
    Then you would be able to attach it to the platen with a counter-sink head screw.
    One more option is to mount the angle guide to a thin piece of ( 0.020" thick ) tin or aluminum with a right angle bent on the end to hang it over the top edge of the original platen. I have made several for my 2x72 grinder which perform well.

      Unfortunately he cut the wrong end off his ruler, so now his combi-square would start at 4inches, not zero.

    I’d go to a local metal fabricator to get a piece of scrap from their bin failing that go to a tool shop with a magnet and see if they had a cheep ruler.

    I would use that for deburring/honing. Fantastic

    How did you change out that idler wheel on top?

    • @BladeLabMiami
      @BladeLabMiami  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I bought a spare idler wheel from a Grizzly 1x30 and basically followed the instructions on the Alexandria Knife Sharpening (@Alxsharpen) channel.

    I use Double Stick tape(vhb) to mount to the Toolcher’s Stainless steel. The key is to slot the holes of the platen mounting arms, as anything you mount to the platen with magnet or tape, forces the belt to rub and heat up the belt/angle guide excessively.

    • @BladeLabMiami
      @BladeLabMiami  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Can you explain what you mean by "slot the holes of the platen mounting arms?" The angle guide does indeed get quite warm.

      @@BladeLabMiami The platen is held on by angle brackets. He is slotting the holes so that the platen can be offset from the belt line by the thickness of the angle guide to reduce friction/heat from the back of the belt rubbing the guide.
