Look for more details in all parts of the Workstation. The most convenient thing, in my opinion, is that you can keep everything you need within one meter of reach. If necessary, you can roll it to another spot in your workshop at any time. Personally, I like that I don’t need to keep a bunch of jaws and blades on the lathe.

​@@WGBChanelAbsolutely makes sense having only the essentials on hand, learning this ever so slowly. Thank you for the information and greatly appreciate the craftsmanship involved.

Thanks. Good luck with your attempts. I like this tree so much

It will get more fun. Stay tuned).

Mike Mahoney and Stuart Batty are great masters, but they may have different views on the 40/40 sharpening technique. This tool is the Mahoney Parabolic Wood Beater made by Carter and Son. The initial sharpening was done by Carter and Son, and I am merely replicating it on a Tormek. Stuart Batty sharpens in a completely different way. His sharpening style is difficult to replicate on a Tormek. I follow his method on a regular grinder. Therefore, it is difficult to compare these two tools, but they are both sharpened to 40 degrees.In the title of the video, I indicate that this is the 40/40 version of the Mahoney Parabolic Wood Beater made by Carter and Son.

@@WGBChanel From the Carter and Son website "Parabolic flute, and swept back grind at 40º". It has a swept back (Irish/Ellsworth) grind. The 40/40 grind developed by Stuart Batty does not have a swept back grind. Mahoney uses a swept back grind because he uses the pull cut, not the push cut like Batty does. It's the same nose angle but with swept back wings which is not a 40/40 grind. I'm not very good with words but it's just a different grind.

@@Tim_Pollock I agree with your line of thinking. Everything you say is correct. I'll reiterate my idea: I wanted to replicate this sharpening on the Tormek. Everything worked out and functions perfectly. Recently, Carter and Son shared their perspective on how to sharpen on the Tormek. Their settings are slightly different. The main thing is that this method works. Thank you for the explanations.

@@WGBChanel Awesome, as long as the grind you're using works well for you that's all that matters. I had a Tormek at one time, wish I still had it.

We use Tormek with diamond wheels. This type of grinder is convenient for the Universal Grinding Platform. Many tools are easier to sharpen here rather than on the Tormek. For these purposes, the UGP is the most convenient tool, in our subjective opinion. This is just our experience and opinion.
