Grinder Rest

This shows my solution to the grinder rest. The knobs are screwed onto carriage bolts that go through each piece of wood and held into squared out holes in the strapping on the opposite sides. The whole unit can slide in 2 grooves (1 shown) held with more knobs. I find that I will set the table to the angle I like for scrapers, lock it all down and match it on both wheels. If I need to sharpen a gouge, I just loosen the bottom knob and flip the unit down, which allows me to use the Wolverine. Flip the unit back up to the wheel (very close) and I am back to sharpening scrapers.
