I'm toying (read fancy a new gadget) with something like the Sorby ProEdge after being impressed with a belt sanders ability to shape metal whilst making my own tools this week. (Another thread to follow when my cutters arrive from Capt Eddie)
I know a few of you have the ProEdge and seem to like it but I have also been reading alot of interesting stuff on the Worksharp WS3000.
I already have a load of Tormek jigs which I can use on the WS3000 and its alot cheaper than the Sorby if I need to get the deluxe version with the jigs for turning.
Can I use the Tormek jigs on the Sorby?
The Sorby would be the safest tried and tested purchase but the WS3000 has a lot of plus points.
Being able to use abrasive disks from ToolStation / Screwfix
Making MDF disks and using cutting compounds for a really fine edge.
The ease of sharpening wood chisels etc to name but a few.
Has anybody had any experience with the WS3000?
Any input or opinions welcomed.
And I know I should just do it by hand and save the cash!
