I purchased this jig for use on my Triton wet sharpener. These Jet jigs are all interchangeable between the Jet, triton, Tormek and Scheppach sharpeners. This one will secure and sharpen your staright edge chisels, plane blades etc. Effective and works well.

I purchased the Jet slow speed grinder for use in my hobbyist wood shop. The more I work with wood and hand tools, the more I understand the importance of sharp tools. The Jet slow speed grinding system in general works extremely well. The straight edge jig works well for chisels and plane blades when you take the time to set up everything well.

My complaint, however, about this jig is that there are plastic O-rings in the base of the jig that register the jig on the support arm so that it is exactly parallel to the grinding wheel. I have had two of these jigs and on both of them , the O-rings (or whatever you call them) have fallen out of the jig. I didn't notice it the first time I used it while sharpening a chisel, which resulted in the jig not registering parallel to the grinding wheel and therefore a sharp chisel with an edge not perpendicular to the shaft of the chisel.
