THE EASY WAY TO GRIND A MICRO BEVEL | MY CHISEL SHARPENING JIG
Vložit
- čas přidán 12. 10. 2019
- I use my chisel not often because they are not really sharp. To change that I made myself a Chisel Sharpening Jig. With this Jig I can grind the primary bevel and the micro bevel without the need to readjust the chisel. That means I can grind a 25° angle and a 30° angle. I could also grind an angle of 35° if I have to. The fact that I don't have to readjust the chisel to grind the micro bevel, makes it very convenient in my opinion.
I hope you like my design. Let me know in the comments.

so glad to see Ahnald Schwattzeneggger found a great retirement hobby!
Fantastic method to adjust microbevel
Wow! Having adjustable rollers preset to 25 and 30 degrees is pure genius. The craftsmanship is excellent too but I'm really impressed with the geometry of the thing. I don't even remember how I landed here but I'm glad I did. Very well done sir.
I can't wait to build this! Could you share the dimensions and hole position of the triangular sides? I can probably do the rest myself, but the geometry of the sides has me puzzled.
Very nice jig 👍
Thank you
Awesome idea
Thank you.
Thanks for a great project.should be using it for years to follow!!!!!!
Nicely designed and made but I’ve reservations about using wood for long term use as it will wear out faster than a tool made from steel.
Outstanding!!!
Thank you
to seconds into this vid I see I need to update my sled for my TS with hand holes like yours GREAT idea! Fantastic jig my friend very impressed!
Thank you so much!
Brilliant ! l made this but l used 5mm thick alloy for the triangles and brass rod for the bearing axles. By using alloy, l could use thinner material for a more streamlined look without losing strength. The brass axle had a contrast effect and was fixed in with an epoxy resin. It looks very slick after polishing to a high degree and then finished of with a coat of lacquer which helps to maintain its appearance. Keep up the good work and ideas flowing my friend, you are an inspiration to us all. 👌👌📐📏🔨🔨
Pretty cool stuff. I would like to build it on my own. You have mentioned that you are working on some plans. Any updates on this?
Would be really appreciated
Very interesting use of the off-center axle on the triangles, to get dual grinding angles. As the main angle is also controlled by the protruding portion of the blade / chisel to sharpen, you can have different length "little helpers", to obtain different angles, for special / non-standard tools, or for different height sharpening stones. Some do it with mirrors, you do it with triangles :-)
perfect
Super Teil, sehr gut Durchdacht
Vielen Dank.
Greare item!
Awesome design.. i will attempt to copy it.. thanks
Very cool~! Probably a lot more fun in the making of this jig than buying one.
brilliant!
Thank you very much.
This is a great little jig, even better if you gave some sizes and dimensions. 👍
Thanks. I have to make plans with all the dimensions.
This is great. I love the detailed videos. Thank you for the gift of knowledge..:)
Thank you so much!
I really like how this jig can straddle the sharpening stone.
Thanks
very nice idea !
Thank you.
Nice
Thanks
great jig👍
Thank you.
Realy clever thing. The ultimate jig.
Thank you.
Fantastic job, dude! Awesome idea! 😃
Thank you
Is bi
Well hello there
This the first time to your sight. I see a lot of things that show your ingenuity. I don't know if they are all your ideas or not, but it doesn't matter as long as you share. Just a few, the hand and clamp holes in your sled, the little bend in your 6 inch rule so you can pick it up, the shim that matches your saw blade to adjust curf to alternate sides of the line. I'll be back
Thank you. I'm glad to read that. I really appreciate that!
👏👏👏👏👏👏
I love it gonna try and make thank you .Can you please out the dimensions on your next projects it would be so helpful thank you again
What language is this you're attempting?
Thanks
Verry Nice jig i want to build one of my one have jou plans of it
I wonder, do you ever sleep? 😀 How do you keep coming up with these great ideas!!!.?? I just bought a diamond sharpening stone that may work great with this jig. Thanks so much! Cheers!
😀 I sleep not much. It's difficult with a full-time job, a family and a CZcams channel.
I can understand that! I am interested, what do you do at your full time job?
A well made jig. I like the idea of rotating the triangles to give you the 30 degree angle for doing the micro bevel. Only concern I see is that since you use wet grinding those ball bearings are going to rust. The plywood will soak a little bit of moisture and keep the jig moist for that much longer promoting rust especially on the hidden bearing areas.
Thank you. Maybe you're right. I will see in the future.
silicone spray after every sharpening should solve that problem
2 drops of camellia oil after every use, No rust!
Seal the wood & grease the wheels I say!!! 🙂
Amazing. How did you calculate the off-center position of the triangle bearing hub to change the angle 10 degrees to set the microbevel (to 35 degrees) when rotated? Genius!! 😋
Thank you. I made a quick sketch of the triangle on the computer
would you share the plans?
Great job b.t.w.
Once again awesome work! Do you have drawings.or at least measurements available?
Thank you. I‘m working on Plans.
great video and ingenious idea, will be making one for myself. But please stop bringing the items up to the camera, we can see it at the working level , when you bring it up to the camera we have to wait till it focuses. But still a great idea.
foff44 I disagree. I like the closeups. Just have to be patient for them to come into focus. They help a lot if you plan to try to build one for yourself as there aren’t always plans or dimensions. IMHO. 😋
Do you plans for your chisel sharpening jig?
When your water stone wears it will become thinner. Will that change the angle of you bevel? If so then you will have to adjust how far out the chisel is protruding. I like your design.
Exactly. Thanks.
Really nice design, one of the best perhaps, but I wonder what if the stone is getting lower and lower after using a long time, it will change the bevel angle right?
Thank you. Yes you're right. I will get diamond stones, and use the other ones just for sharpening knifes.
@@ISIMPLYBUILTIT Ah yea diamond stones wont wear down. Good work Man!
I am planning a vacation to Germany after the Covid stuff is over. I’d Ike to drop in and say hi. ( I used to live in Germany many years ago for 4 years)
awesome video and extremely accurate jig.
What angle did you use at the beginning on the table saw?
Thanks. I think it was 15°
do you have plans available for sale?
Not yet.
Oh! P.S. forgot, l used alloy and hardwood for the chisel clamp, along with knurled brass knobs and brass rod for the pivot itself, again giving a shiny contrast finish. The shoulders for various chisel sizes were achieved using my small milling machine. Boy, it don't half look the dog's bollocks !!! 👏👏
Who manufactures the Forstner bits you use? Any idea whether they're in the US? They look very sophisticated.
Sie sind von Wolfcraft gemacht. Ich weiß nicht, ob sie in den USA erhältlich sind. I think this Forstner Bits could be good ones : www.amazon.com/-/de/dp/B0015O9CDG/ref=sr_1_8?__mk_de_DE=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=1Z7NVLJA7FRFW&keywords=forstner+bit+set&qid=1575202760&sprefix=forstener+bit%2Caps%2C249&sr=8-8
@@ISIMPLYBUILTIT Thank you for your swift reply and best wishes on your CZcams channel. Keep up the good work.
Very interesting but I see a problem the angle is not fixed when u are honing
Your vids are amazing. You are obviously a perfectionist. I noticed in one of your other vids that we have the same bandsaw.i cannot stop mine from drifting. Please can you suggest a cure. I have to put the woos in at 40 degrees to try and follow a straight line. Thanks for your English.
(Thanks Dave from Portsmouth)
Thank you. My bandsaw doesn't drift. When the tension of the blade is right and the top and bottom blade guide is set properly it shouldn't drift at all.
Excellent build but as the sharpening stone wore down & therefore the distance between the stone & the sharpener increased, would that necessitate tilting the sharpener further forward which of course would change the sharpening angle.
Thanks. When the sharpening stone wore down, I have to clamp the chisel in another position. But I will buy diamond stones anyway.
@@ISIMPLYBUILTIT Yes of course, the diamond stone will solve that, now I will build one.
Have you considered making a separate top block (clamping top) for each chisel? It’s a little more work but has advantages. Chisels would each be held more securely. Chisels would also be the same height / depth which should help keep the grinding angle uniform.
What happens when your sharpening stone is worn out and gets shorter in height? Those preset angles won't be 25, 30, or 35° anymore.
This jig would work better if you used sandpaper, on a glass surface.
Swiss, correct?
Yes🇨🇭
You could have sharpened it freehand in the time it took to set up the jig.
But i‘m not really good at sharpening by hand.
@@ISIMPLYBUILTIT Paul Sellers has some really helpful videos on hand sharpening. Watch his technique and listen to his advice and you'll be better in no time!
Its a clever idea until you realize your stone will be getting thiner as you use it and then you'll have yo adjust the deep of the chisel, which is imho more dificult than have 2 deep stops for a stone riding guide instead
Can you build a whriligig hub jig it makes propellers hubs
Maybe when I find the time.
Nice jig, subscribed! If you want more subs, feel free to put a link to your video on our homemade tools forum; looks like you're one of us :-)
Thank you!
Amazing Jig. Genuine Respect and instant subscibe. However, your chisel is not very sharp, you can see the burs catching as you slide it.
Una vergunsa no tengo esas herramientas
A lovely jig! ...but, boy oh boy - I'm not sure about the way you remove your burr - wow.
Thank you. I learned to remove the burr this way, by a guy who grind his chisels by hand. It's done before you grind the micro bevel so it's no problem.
Your offset from 25 to 30 degrees for the triangles was not well explained- you made this almost 3yrs ago not too hard to do a voice over an repost a better video. You have lots of dead air you can use. Your many replies rarely help. Thank you is not an answer. A semi thick 1/4" neoprene strip . medium rubber pink/white eraser would secure the wonky side of the chisel rather than make all those channels. I am sure a woodworker can make it straight with a small square or business card. you could easily draw parallel lines. it also could have a bit more bite with more wood. and a sandpaper stuck on the flat side. Gee I think I will make a video.
