    Tom:
    The tungsten sharpener looks like it works really well. I greatly enjoy seeing home-made tools, and it seems you do a lot of that kind of fabrication. Please - keep the pictures coming.
    Cheers,

    Great set up, the only thing I would change is the medium used for sharpening,maybe an open coat aluminum oxide.

    i used to use a simular setup with angle grinder but didnt like the results i was getting
    i use the lil 3 inch bench grinder from HF nice and tiny gets the job done with a fine grinding stone portable and compact
    I also use a normal 6 inch grinder with a fine stone

    I use a 5" HF grinder,and my only complaint is that the grinding stones are to skinny.Hard to work the tungsten without slipping off the stone.I might try something else.
