When you have to reshape a tool or sharpen it does the wheel always move away from you.
I see others when grinding(reshaping) the wheel turns towards you and then sharpening its turns away from you
Thanks

99 % of the time when I Sharpen the wheel moves away. But Sometimes Toward me, depends on tool.

I have a tormek, what is the difference?

In one of my videos about sharpening, I am talking about Tormek vs Worksharp. Maybe I have to film a separate lesson.

Tool saving lesson!👌
To be honest you’ve given me the Courage to sharpen my v-tools again (after a few mishaps, i was avoiding the tool altogether🙈)
Thankyou Alex.

I’m really glad to hear that you found the lesson helpful! It’s great that you’re picking up your v-tools again. Keep going! Thanks for your kind words.
