Abstract
An improved sharpening machine is provided for easy, extremely accurate sharpening of a variety of tools such as lathe, boring and cutting tools. The machine includes a rotatable, low speed, diamond or other abrasive surfaced wheel, and a tool-supporting table mounted for translatory movement along a path parallel to the wheel abrasive face. The table is further mounted for measured tilting thereof relative to the wheel face, and for shifting of the table and associated structure completely clear of the wheel to facilitate certain sharpening operations and wheel replacement. With the table pivoted completely away from the wheel, the cutting wheel can be operated in a plane perpendicular to its original operating plane. A pivotal tool guide is removably secured to the table for selective alteration of the angular position of a tool being sharpened.
