Tormek Multi Base
The Tormek MB-100 Multi Base allows you to sharpen a perfectly flat bevel on the flat side of your diamond grinding wheel, instead of a slightly concave one.
The Tormek MB-100 Multi Base has an adjustable joint that allows you to change the sharpening position for each tool and jig. This allows you to sharpen on the flat side of Tormek's diamond grinding wheels to obtain a flat bevel (preferred in certain applications).
The Tormek MB-100 Multi Base can be mounted in both the vertical and the horizontal base. The Tormek MB-100 Multi Base is great for sharpening luthier knives, Kiridashi knives, V-gouges, chip-carving knives, Japanese planes, etc.
Tools sharpened on the curved side of the grinding wheel produce a slightly concave bevel. If you have a tool that needs a flat bevel, the Tormek MB-100 Multi Base allows you to sharpen against the flat side of diamond grinding wheels and get a flat bevel.
To set the sharpening angle using the WM-200 AngleMaster, follow the top angle scale marked "MB-100". When sharpening with the Tormek MB-100 Multi Base, the diameter compensator on the AngleMaster should be set to 250 mm.
Note: The Tormek MB-100 Multi Base is not recommended for sharpening with grindstones because they will wear down and require truing – which is not possible on the side.
