I really appreciated this video. I looked at a lot of systems before I decided on the Tormek. And I mean Work Sharp, Foley Belsaw, Grizzly, and the Iconic Wicked Edge. At the opposite end of the spectrum, the TS Prof, Hapstone, KME, and the Edge Pro. I decided to get one main machine to handle 80-90% of the work, and a less expensive system to do the remaining 10-20% of the sharpening. Speed was going to be a necessity for the main machine, because it is being used in a commercial sharpening shop.
This was one of the videos that made choosing the main machine easy. And that was no easy feat, because I went into this considering the Tormek to be an overpriced bench grinder that ran in a water bath. I am now the proud owner of the T8, and I could not be happier.
Jeff Ferris, I don't know know if you work in the Atlanta facility or somewhere else, but I'd enjoy chatting with you about this machine sometime. It is obvious you have out in your time wwith this machine.

I love my T-7, great for sharpening almost anything. Incredible quality, much cleaner than than you think. Removes minimal steel, no dust, won't burn your tools. However, you should always keep your stone true with the diamond truing tool.

I have e Tormek and although it is a clever machine It does have a big drawback; I tried to sharpen an old Swedish chisel with it and that chisel is so hard it literally took med hours of grinding on the stone and made my hands very tired.  It is good for cheaper chisels but it takes just too much time to sharpen good quality ones w. it!

Why didn't he need to flatten the back side?

[bryonagin]

I need one! I'd rather spend the time woodworking instead of using that time sharpening by hand!

The Jet is cheaper and works the same... I really love mine...

Hi I can not figure out why the stone is rolling in your direction and not the opposite direction from you is very dangerous
