Hello Nejc, you have found the formula for making templates, great!, and by the way you english perfect, I am from Denmark, and have leaned my english in the school, like you i suppose, and i understand you better than when an englishman or an american i doing the speaking, keep up the good work!.
Thanks, Nejc. I understand the process for making the large template for the face and the heels, but I don't quite understand the relationship to the small template. The small template has to shape the correct angles to align with the heel facets on the large template.
Esta muy bueno el vídeo..me sirvió mucho..se nota que no sos de habla sajona..hablas español? Lo podrías repetir en castellano...yo le entendi barbaro pero seguro habrá gente que de le complica..y la verdad esta super bueno el vídeo...vale la pena repetirlo en castellano..ademas seguro vas a poder explayarte mas ! Muchas gracias !
Thank you so much for the video! I understand the geometry of the large template but I don’t know how to apply it to the small roughing out template. I have been struggling for some time now to achieve a parallel heel. Can you please explain how you use the geometry to make The smaller template? And with both made will it achieve a parallel heel? Any help would be so great appreciated as I am completely stuck. Thank you!
The geometry of the small templates for relief facets must equal the geometry of big template for heels. You match these two and you get parallel heel. Geometry is yours to choose, just apply it to both templates.
I appreciate your explanation but wonder why cant we just use a 90 degree holder and put something under each side of it to change angles? I also wonder if we could get rid of the length gauge by having a template at set angles with a good base. Put the blank in with something quick, say a vice grip type setup but smaller, and when it hits the stone or wheel it is automatically at the correct angle. Again one could have a wedge to change the angle a bit to remove the proper length if so desired. It seems to me that would be quicker than the length checking.
yeah, absolutly. why not. great idea. you can make a DIY video on this. mu video iz just plain for people to understand the basics. you on the other hand seem to have no problem with this and are thinking way ahead. Enjoy
Hi . Thank you for this video. It's very interesting. I would want to ask you a question. How do you choose the angles 40° and 15° ? Why do you choose these values ?
Hi Nejc, just wanted to say thank you for all the information in your videos, truly inspiring. I would like to ask a question I regards to the Lindsay sharpening templates that you use, do the angles on the larger template match the angles on the smaller roughing out template in correlation to the heel section, eg. On the 116degree larger template is that the same on the smaller template? Any information would be greatly appreciated
And what are the dimensions of the small template to the large one. I correctly understood-the tip is 130 degrees and from the center, on two sides by = 25 mm. The side of the flat edge from the center is 25 mm (right? Or another size) And what is the radius of the two upper ones or their length In mm Please tell me!
its call protactor i believe.. hahah thanks for the video.. i was almost going to spend $200 on some plastic graver templates sold on Lindsay Graver site.. ill try making it myself now.. i was wondering what Lindsay graver templates you own and where do you buy your graver blanks?
Thanks for the comment. i have 2 Lindsay templates.. universal 116, and flat&knife combo. i use to buy graver blanks from Lindsay (square), but now i buy round ones from company Hoffmann. Thanks for watching, Enjoy
Sorry i can't. It's patented and all and i don't think i can just share these things for free. You suppose to buy that to have that. This is why i made this video and THIS IS FREE. If you know the lindsay templates are 116degrees and approx. 12 degree lift then you have all the info you need to make it. The other dimentions are irelavante-it's just cosmetisc. So make a 32 degree angle on both sides to make a 116 degree graver. Its simple and basic math. Just follow my video to make the template and make it yourself. Enjoy
Hi there, amazing what you are doing. I 'll try to copy the things you showed. 2 questions: Where did you order the 3mm round carbide steel rods? How long is the hard plastic tube you put over the rod to be sure the rod is ...mm ? Thnx advance man
