Woverine tools part 1 and 2 have arrived.
Posted: Thu Feb 25, 2016 6:05 pm
I have decided to purchase rather then make the Eddie C or Dave E or King H jigs. I like Oneway tools so this is the route I'm on. I received basic jig and I have the vari-grind 2 attachment.
WARNING potential sticker shock. If you think the price is going to cause you distress please don't view the two links. You have been warned.
For reference here is a site showing the jig:

and the vari-grind 2:

I still have more things I want to get like at least one CBN wheel and possibly a second one at a later time. The skew jig looks helpful as does the wheel dressing attachment (not needed if I get a CBN wheel).
I plan to start with doing a drawing of the shopsmith and see how well the specifications they have for placement can be adapted for use as left side with a narrow mount on the tubes.
If this is sound familiar it should, just a couple of weeks ago there was this post:

There can be little doubt that the basic jig will mount but once the vari-grind 2 comes along it needs to be able to do the wings of the chisels and there might be a swing issue. If mounted on the right the extension of the quill might be an option but not an option on the left side.
I have a grinder that I can use so one way (yes you can enjoy the pun) or the other but for those who might like this method I will test it out and let you know.
If it warms like they are saying I might be able to prototype it this weekend, time will tell and then of course there is unexpected things that come up like having to go grandchild sit for a sick one tomorrow morning for a few hours. Hope I don't catch what ever he has...........
So stay tune to this thread.
