Finely figured
Despite saying I have retired from lending people tools, I was persuaded by a friend to lend him my Robert Sorby linisher. I thought it would be quite hard to damage and he needed to grind quite a few chisels.
It came back recently and I tried to use it today as I had five plane blades to regrind and sharpen. Disaster.
Somehow the table is out of true in two directions. It is no parallel to the belt and is not at 90 degree to the belt either. Hence it grinds a plane iron (or anything) at an angle, both on a slant and out of square, which is worse that useless.
Everything is tight. Is there some trick to trueing the table up to the belt? Any tips would be much appreciated.
Thanks, AJ
