Jigs, Fixtures, & Modifications for the Tormek

Some really great add-ons have emerged for the Tormek. This page contains a quick reference to those user-designed jigs, fixtures, and modifications.

Drill Bit Sharpening

• DBS-22 Modifications - These modifications to the DBS-22 make it easier to use, and expand the capabilities of the DBS-22.


• USB Spacer for the DBS-22 - for faster setup of the Tormek when sharpening twist drill bits.

Knife Sharpening

• Front Vertical Base (FVB) - for faster and more consistent setup when sharpening knives


• Jigs used for faster and more consistent setup when sharpening knives
• HanJig
• KenJig
• Knife Angle Setter


• Laser Goniometer - for identifying the angle that is on a knife, so the grind angle can be matched


• Platform for Honing and Sharpening Knives - for easier work when sharpening multiple knives


• Rotary Knife Jig - for sharpening the blade on the rotary knives which seamstresses use

Multiple Tool Type Sharpening

• Goniostat - for sharpening tools at specific angles


• Honing Support Bar - a secondary bar which allows for sharpening and honing without having to re-adjust the USB when switching between the two wheels


• Pivot Jig for SVM-45 Knife Jig - for making it easier to keep the grind angle consistent along the end of the blade as it curves to a point. Also very useful for sharpening pruning shears for gardening.


• Projection Jig for the TTS-100 - for setting the projection of the tool when using the SE-77 or SVD-186.

Other

• Drip Tray - This is used to send water, dripping from tools, back into the water trough (instead of dropping onto the top of the machine)


• Stone Nut Spacer - for keeping the spindle aligned properly when the grindstone has been removed
