You will also need a bench grinder to sharpen your tools. Can't I do it by

sit it on its back)


I believe some people on this group use a belt sander. I just mentioned
the bench grinder because it seems to be more popular and they are
cheap. It would take a while to do it by hand, but I guess you could.
Some people hone their tools by hand after sharpening on a grinder or belt.
