SVS-50 Multi Jig: Versatile Sharpening Solution

The "Multi Jig" earns its name due to its adaptability, featuring a housing with two interchangeable seats tailored for different tool types: the open seat and the closed seat. Essentially, it offers two jigs in one. The SVS-50 Multi Jig can be used to sharpen straight and round-edged woodturning chisels, parting tools, roughing gouges, as well as woodcarving gouges and chisels.

Why Choose the SVS-50 Multi Jig?

  • Dual Functionality: It’s like having two jigs in one, capable of sharpening a wide range of tools including woodturning chisels, parting tools, roughing gouges, and more.
  • User-Friendly: Easily switch to grind the second bevel without resetting the jig by simply turning it over.
  • Precise Repeatability: Comes with PL-01 Profile Labels for easy setup and accurate results every time.
  • Compatibility: Works with both Tormek T-4 and Tormek T-8 models, as well as older versions.

SVS-50 Multi Jig for Woodturning Chisels

The closed seat is designed for precise sharpening of skew chisels, whether they have a rectangular or rounded blade and a straight or rounded edge. The tool is centrally mounted in the jig, requiring only one setup to sharpen both sides. After finishing one side, flip the jig over to achieve a symmetrical shape.

Thanks to a unique and patented design, the jig can also accommodate chisels with oval cross-sections as well as rectangular blades. It aligns the chisel parallel to the universal support, allowing for the sharpening of both straight and rounded edges. Maximum width for woodturning chisels is 32 mm (1.3").

SVS-50 Multi Jig for Roughing Gouges, Parting Tools, and Wide Carving Gouges

The open seat, which mounts the tool with the top screw, is ideal for tools with edges across the longitudinal direction. It’s perfect for sharpening woodturning parting tools, roughing gouges, and wide carving gouges. Both the open and closed seats are secured with a bottom screw, locking the jig at the desired angle.

Simplifying Woodturning Tool Sharpening

For woodturning tools, using the SVS-50 Multi Jig in conjunction with the TTS-100 Turning Tool Setter is highly recommended. This combination ensures easy and accurate repetition of shape and angle, saving time and preserving tool lifespan by removing minimal steel during each sharpening.

Water-cooled sharpening with a Tormek produces an extremely sharp edge that lasts longer. A sharp chisel cuts smoothly and often negates the need for sanding.

Re-shaping Tools with the SVS-50 Multi Jig

For new woodturning tools requiring significant steel removal to alter their profile, the BGM-100 Bench Grinder Mounting Set allows the SVS-50 Multi Jig to be used on a bench grinder. Care must be taken to avoid overheating the edge. After initial rough sharpening on the bench grinder, switch to the Tormek machine for the final edge sharpness.
