This actually were a pop up ad on my phone. Thought I would share if anyone is interested. I haven't seen them before and haven't tried them.

That is easy. I have made several out of a block of balsa wood, marked the angles i require with a protractor on the side of the wood, and cut with a small saw. You only need them to give you the angle, so balsa wood is fine and easy to cut.
Ken, that is sensational, you have a piece of history there.Mumbleypeg wrote: ↑Thu Aug 13, 2020 11:42 pm Haven’t seen that specific brand but it’s an old, old concept. And it works! That looks like it should be an inexpensive clever version. Several present-day sharpening systems utilize the same concept. The Work Sharp Guided Sharpening System comes with interchangeable angle guides which snap in place, held by magnets. If you don’t like the angles supplied with the kit, optional different angles are available.
Here’s an old Robeson branded “Sharp Stik” sharpening stone mounted in a piece of wood having integral angle guides. Not sure of its age but it’s got to be 60+ years old.

I had the same problem. Google was tracking me, and sending ads for stuff I had looked up. I installed DuckDuckGo as my browser, set it to be my primary browser and deleted or disabled every other browser. Problem solved!thankgod4rkids wrote: ↑Fri Aug 14, 2020 1:48 amThst is a cool old stone Ken.
