Abstract
A tool sharpening device (11) has a rotary grindstone (14), a tool support (34) and linear guides (32, 33) along which the tool support (34) is displaceable in use of the device. The linear guides (32, 33) extend transversely of the axis of rotation of the rotary grindstone (14) and their location is such as to guide a tool carried by the tool support (34) so as to transit across the end face (15) of the rotary grindstone (14). The tool support (34) is releasably connected to the linear guides in such a way that the tool support (34) can be positioned on the linear guides (32, 33) with a tool support face (35) lying at one of two different inclinations to the plane defined by the end face (15) of the grindstone (14).
