Hi Mark

Cant post images in pm's so......

Maybe you haven't got the bed of your PE tilted back? Maybe you have, in which case it probably is the protrusion length of the blade ie too short.

My skew in the image above as can be seen is just shy of 7"

protrusion length I think then- I had it tilted back.

sounds like your skews are about to be re-ground into square end scrapers then

You can buy a Proedge short tool rest for short tools.

I didn't know that...thanks Jacob....that's your solution then Mark by the sound of it.

Blimey! Jacob recommends a sharpening jig! :roll:

Not a jig...a platform I feel sure Jacob will assert

 

[lurker]

Poetic licence was needed to pull Jacobs leg :lol:

of course the use of push sticks are necessary for safe operation of this procedure

It's like bear baiting
