Use glass and sandpaper instead of a stone.

Flatten the stone? Yep that sounds like a good idea!

[e0b1ff]

yes i know, what i was implying was that this device doesn't give that range of motion to prevent excessive wear on the stone.

youve worn out ur stone, when sharpening tools you need to use all of the stone and move ur chisel etc in a figure of eight motion or just a simple up and down motion whilst moving from side to side. however you do it you just need to use the whole face of the stone so that way you wont ware out the middle

ok so when there's a massive groove in the middle of the stone and you want to sharpen a plane blade, what do you do then?
