Stay Sharp!

Posted on 19/03/2019 by Ben Wild Posted in Announcement, Demonstration .

As promised after my rather quick demo at the end of the AGM, I have included a few links to videos on the correct use of the Robert Sorby Pro Edge.

Remember, The Pro Edge system MUST be used for sharpening the club tools. If you have your own HSS tools, then you can use any of the 3 sharpening systems but you should not use the CBN wheels for carbon steel as this damages and clogs the wheels.

If you have any questions, just ask.
