thats a fantastic bit of kit

[@jamescook9100]

Great set up

[@mutchumbo]

If I’m resharpening a graver, how do I index it to the exact spot in the holder?

[@MacherlaPrabhakar]

Great content

[@JamokaJoe]

Some details are overlooked.... what speed are you using on the sharpener? Running clockwise or counterclockwise?

[@jamesperkins9833]

Absolutely impossible to mess up using one of these, will be getting one soon.

[@Grstools]

Thanks, James! They also come in 120 degree. It is the main graver of choice for Sam Alfano and others.

[@andyvan5692]

question: is the "easy Graver" the chuck that holds the graver, or the base & motor with the abrasive wheel, or the whole thing, ie: like a gem faceting machine? as to my take on the title you are talking about the chuck block.

[@nopriors]

Do these wheels work for carbide?

[@xaxaxa-w6i]

How can it be positioned correctly when resharping ? I mean how can it be set correctly for second time, bacause it is a round piece.

[@mutchumbo]

Did you work out or get a response to this question?

[@douglasrandall6737]

I just got the APEX sharping fixture do you have a video for it?

[@Grstools]

Here is a link to sharpening a 90 degree graver with the dual angle dial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/apmUeaiEi8Rsi6s And here is a link to using the colored geometry specific dials: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoPEh5hpn9qLd6c.

[@brandysigmon9066]

It don't hurt the c-max carbide graver if they get hot, right?

[@Grstools]

Thanks for the question. If you are sharpening with either the GRS GraverHone VS or the GRS PowerHone your c-max gravers should hold up just fine to heat created during the sharpening process.

[@allenl9214]

Do you need to buy multiple EasyGraver for different angles?

[@Grstools]

Yes, each EasyGraver® fixture only sharpens one geometry or angle of graver. We currently sell a 105º and a 120º EasyGraver® Sharpening Fixture. We sell a variety of sharpening fixtures and systems.

Are the heels Paralell?

[@Grstools]

The EasyGraver fixture creates heels that are nearly parallel. They are not truly parallel, but very close.

[@ZX1D]
