MDF Sharpening Wheel
I thought this may be of interest. I borrowed from the paper wheel guys and made a sharpening wheel out of 3/4" MDF on my table saw. Coupled with a $10 garage sale bench grinder and some polishing compound, the results are impressive. Shaving sharp and fast for a whopping $11.10.
I put together a how-to on my blog. http://dcknives.blogspot.ca/p/diy-sharpening-wheel.html This may be value going into hunting season where knives need to be touched up before heading out. As always, comments appreciated. Dan |

That's awesome Dan, thanks for sharing!
You can also achieve a perfect circle with a router table with a pin like you did on the table saw. |
