Tormek Horizontal Base | XB-100

Tormek Horizontal Base | XB-100.

The XB-100 Horizontal Base allows sharpening with the rotation of the grinding wheel running away from the edge (edge trailing) rather than into it (edge leading). This is particularly beneficial when sharpening woodturning gouges with the SVD-186 R Gouge Jig, as it reduces the risk of the blade catching on the grinding wheel.

Additionally, the XB-100 Horizontal Base enables honing of tools using the universal support and jigs, allowing precise setting for maximum accuracy. The base was originally supplied as standard on all Tormek S-2000 and S-1200 machines after 8 August 2001. Older machines can be upgraded with this horizontal base to achieve the same functionality.

Features & Benefits:

• Edge Trailing Sharpening: Allows sharpening with the grinding wheel rotating away from the edge, preventing catches on the blade.
• Precision Honing: Enables honing with jigs on the universal support for maximum accuracy.
• Machine Upgrade: Compatible with Tormek 2000, Tormek 1200, and older machines from before 8 August 2001.
