Roughing Gouges
Lock the seat with the bottom
screw (6) in the straight position
(0°). The seat should touch the
stop (7).
Mount the gouge protruding (P)
75–100 mm (3–4") and lock it
with the top screw (5).
Set the edge angle by adjusting
the Universal Support. When
replicating an existing angle,
use the Marker Method, (p 41).
Roll the gouge on the Universal
Support while you slide it
across the stone so that the
wheel wears evenly.
Ensure that the entire flange
of the jig is in contact with the
Universal Support.
Grind until you can feel the burr
along the entire edge.
Move the Universal Support to the leather honing wheel. Hone
and polish the bevel with the tool still mounted in the jig. Set the
Universal Support so that you have the same honing angle as the
grinding angle. Use the Marker Method.
