Tungsten Carbide Sharpening Disc (Wooden faceplate not included)

This 100mm diameter sharpening disc is specifically designed for sharpening carbide cutters. To use it, create a 100mm wooden faceplate that is positioned close enough to the headstock for you to rest your fingers and stabilize the cordless drill during operation. The faceplate should have a 16mm tenon to fit the disc's hole. Secure the disc with a large washer and screw, and remember to seal the timber to protect it from getting wet during use. For more insight please watch video link below

Set your faceplate and sharpening disc on the lathe at 300 rpm.
Mount the cutter in your battery-powered drill using the shaping dowel provided with the tool.
Spray a small amount of water on the disc.
Run the drill in the opposite direction of the lathe while touching the heel/bevel of the cutter's face to the wheel.
Move the drill towards the lathe's headstock until the cutting edge touches the disc.
It's helpful, especially when starting, to mark the entire cutting surface of the cutter with a permanent marker pen to see what you're sharpening clearly.
A useful tip is to run the cutting edge over your fingernail. If it shaves off a piece, it's still not sharp enough; it should dig in immediately
