I purchased this for my Triton Wet Sharpener and it fits the shaft perfectly. I use the wheel for honing the inside of my turning gouges and for this it works well. Just remember to apply some light machine oil to the leather before you apply the honing compound. This will give a better final result and help protect the leather wheel.

I wish they provided a second strop for the larger gouges. This one works fine on small gouges.

I figured out that if you soak the leather with light weight oil (3 in 1, air tool oil etc.) before applying the grit it works a whole lot better. Buy new grit at the auto parts store. It's a better grit.

Of all the jigs provided with the JET sharpener, this is the one that changed my work.
Honing my gouge had always been a tricky operation for me. Because of that I did tend to procrastinate and wait until my tools where out of shape to do something about it.

With this jig, honing gouge or V tool is extremely easy. I now hone my tools as needed and my work has improved.
