Default Sharpening Station Plans

Neil,

Checkout the New Yankee Workshop web site. Norm built
a sharpening station; it looked like a companion box to
his famous router table.

As I try to get things set up, I find I don't want to
tear something down to set up something else. Probably
an age thing. Could be a reaction to restricted space
for years and years. (now if I can just find/build a
setup for my Leigh Jig....)

live long enough to make them all yourself. I’ve
tried!!!

| Any body have any unique plans for a sharpening
station. I have a standard
| 8" double wheel grinder, a Delta Sharpening Station
and a Jet Slow Speed Wet
| Sharpening System. I use the Jet 80% of the time and
the Delta about the
| next 18% but there are times that I need a real live
rough grinder, so, I
| would like to find a way to mount and store all of
them in a rack/cabinet
| that I can switch them out. As a secondary issue, I
still do have need for a
| ceramic stone though I am thinking about switching to
the Scary Sharpening
| Syatem for flatening my plane blades and chisel
backs. So some room for that
| would be ok, but not a real requirement, I use my
bench now.
|
| I was thinking of a tall wheeled cabinet with the Jet
on top. The pedestal
| would be just big enough for the Jet. It would
present the Jet at low chest
| level then have lower shelves on each side for the
grinder and the Delta.
| Another option might be the interchangeable top
system. I did that in a
| double cabinet for my planer, belt/disk sander,
scroll saw and spindle
| sander.
|
| Anybody tried or seen anything like this or anybody
have a better idea? Any
| input would be greatly appreciated.
|
| Thanks for your assistance
