I just got my WS2000 the other day and have been on the fence about keeping it. I have a Wolverine system which I'll likely always use for turning tools, and have been using ScarySharp for chisels and plane blades which works well but is time consuming.

I just watched the WS2000 video on Worksharp's webpage, and it looks like it may be able to save me a lot of time that I'd spend with the ScarySharp system. I read that Bill made some of his own discs by cutting 1/2" BB and gluing sandpaper to it. I suppose I can do the same and work my way up through the grits like ScarySharp right?

I'm basically looking for a good reason to keep the WS2000.

The 2000 is primarily designed for metalworking tools. It has a fixed angle where as the 3000 adjusts between the typical woodworking angles. I did see a thread where someone had made an enclosure and a bunch of angled "sleds" to make the 2000 work for WWing. I would pass it on and get a 3000 when possible and yes, you can easily work your way up through the grits.
