Rockler Grinding and Honing Jig with Guide

Sharpening has never been simpler than with this innovative Grinding and Honing Jig from Rockler. The jig includes a roller-style honing guide that goes straight from the grinding wheel to the honing stone without requiring a single adjustment. That means you can reshape the bevel angle on your chisels and plane irons, then move the guide to the sharpening stone of your choice (sold separately) to hone the blade to a razor-sharp edge. Highly adjustable for a range of bevel angles. Three setup gauges are included for the most common angles, and the gauges are conveniently stored onboard.

Details:

• Specially-designed honing guide goes from grinding the proper angle on your chisels and plane irons to honing a razor-sharp edge, all with one setup
• Three angle gauges make it easy to set the adjustable grinding support base for 20°, 25° and 30° angles
• Honing guide accepts chisel and plane blades from 1/4'' to 2-3/8'' wide and features a wide roller for stability during honing
• Adjustable grinding support base fits many 6'' and 8'' grinders and has smooth-sliding carriage that accepts honing guide
• Once grinding is done, just lift the honing guide from the support base and use its smooth-rolling action to refine the edge
• Polished linear rods on base and nylon bushings on honing guide provide smooth-sliding action
• 4'' x 5'' x 1-1/2'' tall tray incorporates a trough for water to cool the chisel during grinding, as well as storage for three angle gauges
• Grinding support base allows adjustment to square it up to the grinding wheel and raise or lower it to achieve desired angle

Note: Chisel or plane blades must be at least 4-3/4'' long for a 20° grind; at least 3-7/8'' long for a 25° grind; and at least 3-3/8'' long for a 30° grind.
