Product Description

Designed for use with the Razor Sharp Edgemaking System. Absolutely the fastest, easiest way to put an edge on tools that we have ever seen! In fact it impressed us so much that we kept the system set up in our shop and now hone all of our tools with it before each use. Two laminated paper wheels, one for grinding and one for buffing, fit any 5/8" arbor bench grinders (includes spacer to adapt to 1/2" arbors). The use of the silicon carbide grinding compound and jewelers rouge buffing compound on the two wheels allows you to produce a mirror finish while virtually eliminating the chance of "bluing" your tool (the wax on the silicon carbide wheel acts as both a lubricant and cooling agent). Lightly grind your blade with the silicon carbide/conditioning grease wheel until you feel a wire edge, then polish the burr off with the jewelers rouge buffing wheel. Use real coarse sand paper (about 36 grit) and clean all the grit off, down to the bare paper. Use 60 grit to true the wheel (it might be a little out of round), square off the corners and get it nice and smooth. Turn off the motor, but do not remove the wheels. If you do you may have to eliminate some wobble when you put it back on. Hand turn the wheel and put a thin bead of Elmers white glue on the face of the wheel, then spread it with your finger until there is a thin layer. Next, put some newspaper under the wheel to catch the excess grit, hand turn as you sprinkle the black Silicon Carbide powder on top of the glue. Go around 2 or 3 times until it looks good and no more will stick. Sometimes the powder will soak through the glue and youll need to sprinkle on a little more. When you are happy with your coating job, pour the excess back into the container and replace the lid. Do not touch the wheel until it dries, preferably overnight, then its ready to go again! There is enough Grit in the kit to re-coat the wheel 20 to 25 times.
