Ah, thanks Dtec. That bubble jig looks like a nice way to have a little help. So simple, yet so smart. I like the way it does not make contact with the belt. Maybe a little at the plungeline though? Does it?
Thanks for explaining the angle calculator you use. To be honest it still didn't settle in my brain. It's not something I am very good at obviously (can not be good at everything). But generaly I would say thinking of one side at the time would probably be a bit more palatable for me as well. When I make another knife for which I like to know the approximate angle I will surely use the calculator link you posted and read your description. That's the beauty of a forum like this; everyting that is posted keeps stored for later times. I love it! Thanks again.
