Tip: Move the tool from one side to the other on the tool
rest in a smooth, steady motion. This will create a
consistent cutting edge. Avoid starting the grinding in
the center of the tool. Start at one side and smoothly
move the tool to the other side. Check edge for grind
pattern and sharpness progress after every other pass.

(9) Short Tool Rest Jig Tormek® SVS-32

This jig is best used for quick and precise
sharpenings of short lathe turning tools and curved
or vee shaped carving tools.

Place the tool to be sharpened into the jig and

clamp tight.

Set the tool bar to your desired orientation to the

grinding wheel.

Adjust the tool bar Height using the Micro-Adjust

knob so the bevel angle on the tool lays flat on the
grinding wheel. Tighten the Tool Bar knob.

Saddle the jig onto the Tool Bar.

Start on one side and roll the tool and jig back and

forth to sharpen or hone.

Option: Scribe or mark a line onto your tool to identify
the Tool Stick Out and record the Height setting for
repeatable future sharpenings.
