All these slider threads got me thinking. Does anyone here have the Harvey compass st-1500 attached to their unisaw? Can you speak on the quality, ease of attachment, capabilities and shortcomings? Thank you in advance!
Last Post By: Troy Gamm Yesterday, 2:51 PMI have two exterior doors, one to the back of my house and one to my tool shed. Both are showing the effects of winter water splashing up on them at the base. The door to my shed is really bad. I don't want to replace the doors but would like to put a board over the base, like a kickplate to...
Last Post By: Stan Calow Today, 9:20 AMMy cottage is on well water. Several years ago we started with the dreaded sulfur smell, hot water only. I had a plumber replace the anode. Smell came back eventually. I found the model of the anode he installed and see that is just aluminum. Seems like the one I need is aluminum/zinc? Has...
Last Post By: Bill Howatt Today, 9:43 AMI was talking with friend over the weekend and they were unaware that V12 has been released. So, I figured I would post here in case someone wasn't aware of this news. In general the upgrades look good overall. I personally upgraded my version of Vcarve Pro.

But I am currently upgrading,
After thinking about it, my long handled Stihl was new in 1999 and I've never cleaned it that I remember. I do remember sharpening it a couple of times.

Spindle gouge bevel angle?
Thread Starter: John KananisI have a 1/2" sorby detail gouge that I have ground at 40° (also removed the heel) and it works ok now that I moved away from the jigs and started sharpening by hand... but it's still just an ok tool.
