We are great was considering this for small carving knives and stroping wheel I have can wheel for turning toolsHi Jack, the 3000 is a great little machine. I have always had problems with sharpening. This thing solved a lot of 'em. Later if you want to upgrade Woodturners Wonders has CBN wheels for this machine. Are things ok with you & yours in Stanley?

I bought the CBN wheels for mine and also got a leather strop. It seems there needs to be a grit higher than 1200 to make this work well, as I cannot shave hairs after the leather strop. Sharpening has always frustrated me.Hi Jack, the 3000 is a great little machine. I have always had problems with sharpening. This thing solved a lot of 'em.
