Why Consider the XB-100 Horizontal Base?
- Tailored for older Tormek models, providing horizontal precision mounts.
- Facilitates sharpening with the grinding wheel rotation directed away from the tool’s edge, reducing the risk of catching.
- Enables the use of jigs on the universal support for honing with unparalleled accuracy.
- Compatible with Tormek 2000, Tormek 1200, and models predating August 8, 2001.
Enhanced Honing with Jigs
This base also allows for precise honing using the universal support and jigs in an edge-trailing manner, ensuring maximum accuracy and efficiency in honing tasks.
If your Tormek machine predates the standard inclusion of the XB-100 Horizontal Base, this upgrade offers a significant enhancement to your sharpening capabilities, allowing for safer, more precise tool maintenance.
Benefits of Edge-Trailing Sharpening
The XB-100 Horizontal Base is particularly beneficial for sharpening tools like woodturning gouges with the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig, as it minimizes the risk of the blade catching on the grinding wheel—a common issue with edge-leading sharpening.
