Default chisel & plane blade sharpening?

is there online somewhere a good tutorial on how to sharpen and maintain
chisels and block plane knifes? Also instruction on how to restore chisles
that have really banged up edges? Im needing to use blockplane more and
should sharped the blade.

I caught the end of the program on the DIY channel where he used 4 wet
stones to sharpen a block plane knife but not the entire thing. He would
take paper thin shavings off the edge of wood after sharpened. I have a
water wheel thing with single stone wheel in water well (I guess Tormek
like) that I inherited but not sure its the right thing to use by itself as
the wet stone approach on the DIY used 4 different stones.

Id probably only need to sharpen infrequently like once every 2-3 months as
its a weekend hobby thing.
Any thoughts appreciated.

thanks
