Clarkson Tool and cutter bed stop

[thehomeengineer]

Hi All
My Clarkson tool and cutter grinder is an excellent tool, not only sharpening various tools but great for sharpening custom made tools. When sharpening tools to a shoulder or centre, this however can be difficult to return to the exact same position. To overcome this issue I made a stop. The stop can be used either side.

To set with the stop a grub screw locks against the shaft which is slid into position and a bolt with a locked nut enables finer adjustment. The photos will hopefully clarify.




I am not sure if there is a purposely made stop by Clarkson or even if this is the correct way to maintain a position. But it does work but if anyone knows of a stop design I would be very interested in seeing how it works.

Thank you for taking the time to read.
