 now my little air compressor lives to the left of the belt sander. i also have tools scattered among several bags. one for bike stuff, one for electrician stuff, one with common-use stuff ms jones uses so she doesn't have to hunt, and a big tool bag that has some odds and ends in it that used to hold all my overflow. and then the multimeter is inside on my desk, and there's a pile of screwdrivers in a box i have of ham radio stuff inside. and there's a shelf for handheld power tools in the garage, but the batteries are in the closet in my office. i have a long way to go but i'm happy with things so far

Wild EEPROM posted:ah yes the sharpener that takes as much skill to use as a regular stone but as good results as a pull through and rounds the tip every time nah you're mistaken on both counts, unless you're talkin a regular stone with a guide system, in which case it's just a different shape of basically the same thing

i mean, yes? it's not really meant to reprofile blades. you are correct that using the wrong tool sucks though

ive never messed with a strop, it seemed like the sort of thing where it's gonna dull to pre-strop-capability so quickly that it never seemed worth it. i may be wrong on that iirc the fine doodad that came with the sharpmaker gets it sharp enough to cut hair, so i usually stop there. but sometimes i use the extra sharp one and it's good. keep in mind this is basically exclusively for kitchen knives; i dont remember the last time i sharpened a pocket knife im afraid to sharpen my santoku with it because idk what angle it's at, if it's only sharpened on one side, etc. and im afraid ill screw it up really badly

oh that makes sense. could i leave the strop in the garage that gets very hot in the summer and pretty cold in the winter, or would it have to come inside? also, got any brand recs?

lol i know what it does man, i've just never cared enough to do it and it seems a bit much for kitchen knives i don't hone either, but that one's because i'm afraid i'll mess it up and gently caress up the blade long term

oh come on sagebrush, surely it's not the case that you can't figure out a way that someone might damage up a blade by honing the angle wrong, or applying too much force. right? right? and you understand that it has everything to do with that, and not misunderstanding the process? i think you know that and you're just pretending

as far as i can tell, it didn't. it's like 95% knives, with the rest stuff like "made a pet out of hair" (lol what), "hand-shaped fried meat and rice," "bowling tips with a cast," etc https://www.youtube.com/@kiwami-japan/videos im wondering if some wires are getting crossed
