thanks for all your help guys, i might just have to try all your ideas and see what works for me
jason, i think you might be right about not realising how long it can take but its also the angle thing. i have used the grinder but found that i over heated the edge very easily, i think its due to the pretty high sped it runs at. will a dull belt heat up alot more than a sharp one? also i had it edge up which might have made for a poorer edge
Andrew i would love to see a picture of your jig, it sounds like a really interesting idea, also stropping on your jeans hmmm interesting. also you mention that the point of the triangle meets the belt where it is slack, why have you done that, how does it affect the outcome
thanks Brett
