Grinder Confusion. Fast?? Slow??

I don't know either and agree with the wheel wear comment Ken but the results are better than if the alignment is not done.

The front of base to front of wheel alignment is gone as soon as the wheel wears, and I can't see any application where the vee arm would be slid up to contact the front of the base. I'm a bit thick in stuff like this, tho.

Think of the sharpening system as a triangle. Precise setup gives you the base of the triangle so the Vari-Grind jig can grind consistant angles at each of it's marks. This becomes evident when you begin to grind gouges with sweptback sides. Of course, if you are only going to sharpen on your own machine and never anticipate needing to sharpen your tool anywhere else, the settings really don't matter all that much. Plus or minus a half inch will not be all too bad. You will develop your own profiles, they would just be a bear to duplicate on another machine.
