The ultimate jig for woodturning tools
The SVD-186 R Gouge Jig provides exact repeatability of both the shape and the sharpening angle of your bowl gouges and profile gouges. This means you can be sure the tool will behave in the same predictable way at the lathe every time you sharpen your tools. The TTS-100 Turning Tool Setter gives you exactly the shape and sharpening angle you want, depending on your type of turning.
The SVD-186 R Gouge Jig allows you to sharpen your tools with the edge in the same the direction as the direction of rotation of the grinding wheel, with the universal support in the horizontal position. If your machine dates back to 2001 or before, you can fit an XB-100 Horizontal Base to be able to sharpen edge trailing.
The length of the gouge's wings can also be varied so that the shape of the gouge suits your woodturning style. Nothing gives faster or sharper results when the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig is used correctly and in conjunction with your Tormek machine.
You can also sharpen your woodturning cutters with SVD-186 R Gouge Jig. Mount your cutter onto the special shaft that is included with the jig, and you get a controlled and simple sharpening of your woodturning cutters of virtually any shape.
Follow ready-made recipes, or create your own
The SVD-186 R Gouge Jig can be adjusted to give different profiles. You can create your own profile, also known as a "recipe", or choose one of the recommended profiles from the profile guide provided with the instructions. You can use our PL-01 Profile Labels to record the settings for your recipe and attach them to the metal ring around the tool handle so that you can quickly and easily repeat the sharpening angle on your tool.
You can also sharpen carbide woodturning cutters with the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig. Mount your cutters on the special shaft supplied with the jig for controlled sharpening.
SVD-186 R for wood sculpting tools
Tormek's slow-rotating and water-cooled grinding wheels are perfect for sharpening your wood sculpting and carving tools. You can easily sharpen curved or bent tools with the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig. The water-cooled grinding wheel is gentle on carbon steel and eliminates the risk of overheating the delicate edge.
The jig can be adjusted to fit the shape of the tool, allowing you to easily create a smooth bevel on the rounded edge. You can also sharpen curved gouges with the same fantastic results.
Lock the turning motion
The SVD-186 R Gouge Jig has a locking knob that allows you to lock the rotational movement of the jig. This feature makes it easier to maintain full control when sharpening wood sculptor's tools such as V-gouges. The locking knob also allows you to sharpen with a completely flat bevel on luthier knives when using Tormek's MB-102 Multi Base and diamond grinding wheels.
Re-profile your tools with the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig
Do you have a new tool and need to remove a lot of steel to change its profile or create a smaller sharpening angle? The BGM-100 Bench Grinder Mounting Set will allow you to use the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig on a bench grinder too. But you have to be careful not to burn the edge here. When you've completed the initial rough sharpening on the bench grinder, you then switch to your Tormek machine and give the edge its final sharpness.
Our patented TTS-100 Turning Tool Setter allows you to keep the exact same shape and sharpening angle. This gives you the best of both worlds in one jig system – the fastest possible removal of steel and the best possible sharpness!
