Dunlap sharpening system. Really!

Jun 14, 2006 1 Replies

Struggling with the tool sharpening learning curve and beginner's luck with turning, Dad always thought we should have one of these Dunlap motorized wet "sandstone" wheels. Well, I'm nearing 74 now, and Dad would be proud to know I finally found this Dunlap sharpening system at a price I couldn't turn down. $10 (without motor, of course). But, since it was at the Lyman, Wa community garage sale, I thought I'd try my weak bargaining skills. $5 was my offer. Sold! Wahoo! Only thing was that I had to build up the courage to ask SWMBO, Dora, to help me load it up........ It's home now, being cleaned up for service.

Heh - it seems like the older we get, the more our father's advice holds true. Or, the more we pay attention to it, as least.
