Lesson 2 continues our series for new woodturners, potential woodturners as well as experienced woodturners looking to brush up on their fundamentals. Today is an introduction to sharpening woodturning tools at a grinder. We will explore grinders (Rikon Grinder https://amzn.to/4brA2wV), set-up jigs and fixtures for maximum efficiency (One Way Wolverine https://amzn.to/3VEFJSx) along with sharpening tools like a spindle gouge (https://amzn.to/3VZQa4n).

This is a 10-part series to help beginning wood turners build a solid foundation of woodturning skills to be able to create all the projects you are dreaming of. We will be adding the lessons to a Playlist on the channel to make it easy to find the entire series.
