Made a axe sharpener
Made up this axe sharpener today, ya can change the degree of angle by adding or removing washers under the point bracket.

Pitchey, you amaze me. How the heck do you come up with this stuff? Heck, you should patent stuff like this.

Thanks jeepnik, I seen one somewhere but just recently getting into restoring some old axes so made one.
Edit, ya can also change the angle of the grind by where ya put the punch mark, closer to the cutting edge the steeper the angle.

Re: Made a axe sharpener
That's pretty slick Lenn. Great idea!
Bet it could be done with a stone or file for sharpening in the field, also. Kind of like a Lansky sharpener.
