All my blades...Sound like you forgot, once, too :-)<br />All my blades, with the exceptions of my assortments of Hi angles for my LV LA jack plane are at primary 25, that's my go to angle.<br />But i'm not sure I would have bother changing a 30 into a 25, unless I had no choices IE not available?<br /><br />The snow is really accumulating fast this morning, Rudy doesn't care much for it :-)Valley Woodworkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322487171914484954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-20258844932551107942015-12-27T04:31:03.394-08:002015-12-27T04:31:03.394-08:00Bob,
Yep, forget the day and pay for it for a yea...Bob,<br /><br />Yep, forget the day and pay for it for a year. This year I did good with the help of the waitstaff.<br /><br />The slow speed and a 220 grit stone all make far a very slow grind unless there is a lot of pressure put on the iron. Even with pressure a Tormek is slow if you are removing very much iron. Yesterday I was taking a new Veritas O-1 iron from a 30 degree primary to a 25 degree primary. The real question is why in hell was I doing that, answer is "because" :-). <br /><br />I like a 30 degree effective bevel on O-1 iron vs. 35 on A-2, not that I like to use A-2 but it is getting to the point of having to use A-2 on Lie Nielsen planes. But I ramble on a sure sign of OFD, anyway I like to start on a 25 degree bevel to make it easy to freehand close to 30 degrees.<br /><br />I assume you use a snowblower to blow snow? What a strange custom :-). <br /><br />Someday I'll have to tell the long and boring story of my last winter in Salt lake City, UT. and why it was my last winter in SLC.<br /><br />kenI'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-7378998581876833032015-12-26T21:25:26.277-08:002015-12-26T21:25:26.277-08:00Welcome back.

Look like a good time was had by all, including the critters :-)<br />You are quite right about the most important day of the year...our spouses<br />birthday. <br />I never used a Tormek, but not quite sure why it require so much pressure? <br />Looking forward to your report on the CBN wheel.<br /><br />Cheers, and keep your hockey stick on the ice :-)<br />Bob from the land of snowblowersValley Woodworkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322487171914484954noreply@blogger.com
