ADvise on grinding on belt sander
Hi guys
Until now i have ground the primary bevel on all my knifes with a bastard file and a grinding jig. This weekend i modified my 4x36" to accomondate knife grinding in a better way than out of the box. The result is this: My question is: Is it more dificult to grind with a belt sander and grinding jig than i expected or am I just useless? ;-) This is the firs blade where the primary bevel is made on the belt sander: As you can see, the grind line is a bit wobbly, and i'm not sure if im doing anything wrong or if my setup on the belt sander is doing something it shouldn't? The grinding jig is a angle iron withe a bolt and a locknut to controll the belvel angle. I already see quite some wear on the steel table. Its just from a piece of 0.4x4.7" mild steel. Is this to soft to use? |
