ONEWAY Wolverine Vari-Grind Attachment - Woodturning Tool Grinding Jig - Black - 1 Piece

absolutely the best tool to sharpen bowl gough with the wolverine bench grinder system

Long ago, I purchased a lathe tool sharpening jig. It did come with an accessory for doing fingernail profiles on bowl gouges. It was frustrating to use due to reversed threads on the tightening mechanism and the gouges would often twist in the jig as I was trying to secure the gouge into the jig. When I opened the box for Oneway's Wolverine VariGrind jig, I was immediately impressed. The jig is well made of steel, with instructions that were clear and concise. It is easy to secure the gouge in place and in the correct position. My only regret was not buying this sooner

Really helps with an even grind and is a lot faster than sharpening by hand. The price is reasonable as well

It’s a must have if you are a wood turner. Your tools will need sharpening and without this you can’t get the right angles to get a proper grind.

I have been turning for about a year, tired to save $$$ where I could.. Made a homemade sharping jig, it worked but not good enough. I was unable to get a sharp tool every time and when I did the tool didn't stay sharp for very long. Well I bought the Wolverine One-way jig and fixed part of my sharping problem, got some of the tools (flat scrapers) sharp. But still wasn't where I needed to be, was at a friends shop and used a bowl gouge that had been sharpened using the Vari-Grind attachment. So I did what I wished I had done months ago and that was to purchase the Vari-Grind attachment, searched the internet for the best deal and placed the order. Now I have the system, only thing that I think I might order in the future is the One-way jig attachment for the skew. My advice is clear, don't waste turning time like I did, bite the bullet and purchase the Wolverine One-way sharping jig and get the Vari-grind attachment at the same time. It is easy to use and does what it is advertised to do and that is simply give you consistently sharp tools, it really makes a big difference.

I believe the brass tightening knob to be just a tad too big, a little larger than the diameter of a fifty-cent piece. Gets in the way occasionally. Takes some getting used to, since the directions leave room for mistakes and don't include information on what degree the notches are cut at, which would be extremely helpful. The wing nut and bolt/washers do NOT have a positive detente or catch, it is just a friction hold. I could see that constant loosening and re-tightening of the knob might wear the wing nut and bolt, which might cause slippage down the road- something I will definitely be paying attention to. Perhaps the wing nut should be larger, which would help in tightening the leg more securely, and help with finger busting. Still. it is a solidly built tool, just need some minor improvements to make it great!

The one way jig is a great tool, every thing they make works wonderfully,.

Works great. As described.

It does exactly what it's meant to do, good bit of kit.

Should have sharpening angles written on it.
