    Sharpening in Austin, TX

    Can anyone here recommend a good sharpening service in or around Austin, TX? I've got a couple carbide tablesaw blades that need some help. Thanks!

    If they're good blades then you might consider packing them up and sending them to Forrest for sharpeneing, they do a prettyy good job.

    If they are so-so blades and you don't want to send them out, most hardware stores like Ace and Lowes and Sears Hardware take them in and gives them to a guy that comes around once a week - they'll bring it back the next week same day so if you time it right it'll take 8 days, up to 14 days if not. call and check the hardware stores, but thats the way its done in Houston. I think one shop does most of them... they have the same price list with the hardware store name on it.

    If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

      Cook's in San marcos is probably the best known. Weatherford Tools on Shelby Lane handles drop off for them.
