Looking at the
Sharp Fast System
and also getting the
Sharp Fast Multi Jig Tool Rest
coments and reviews please, both parts look like they would do a good job and be easy (and safe) to use.

Thanks for your help

I have the system and like it. I had the Vari Grind I and didnt like how easy it was to have the tool come off the grinding wheel. I had it happen once and destroyed a stone.

The Sharp Fast is much safer, but so is the Vari Grind II. It has a lot of adjustability and it can be marked to get it back in adjustment when you change to grind a different tool. It works well with the Wolverine base - that is what I have.
