Turning Tools
Sharp turning tools are the best turning tools. With Tormek’s gouge jig, you can sharpen your turning gouges to a razor edge with complete control. It also includes a special shaft that will hold replaceable HSS turning tool tips for sharpening.
In combination with theTurning Tool Setter, the SVD-186R can exactly replicate the shape of your cutting edge throughout the life of the tool. If you want to re-shape a tool, you can use the SVD-186R with the TormekBGM-100 Grinder Mountto quickly re-grind the edge on your bench grinder, then move back to you Tormek for final honing – without changing the settings on the jig.
Carving Tools
The gouge jig excels at sharpening carving gouges of many shapes and profiles, including V-Tools. It will hold tools up to 36mm (~1-7/16″) wide.
Flat Bevel Knives
Sharpening Knives with a flat bevel (marking knives, chip carving knives, violin knives, etc.) can be challenging. The SVD-186R holds these knives in perfect position to sharpen them on the flat side of the Tormek wheel. (Only do this onDiamond wheels. You should not grind on the side of a standard Tormek grindstone.)
