81 - Ultimate Sharpening Station, страница 16

With plenty of storage and a slide-out worksurface, this station will keep your sharpening supplies ready for action.

For me, sharpening tools is a little like going to the dentist — even though I know I should do it, 1 tend to put it off for as long as I can. And I think one of the main reasons for this is that I don't want to have to stop in the middle of building a project, clear off my bench, and drag out my sharp

ening supplies. That's where this sharpening station comes in. It gives you a dedicated sharpening area that's ready to go at a moment's notice.

So what makes this cabinet a "sharpening" station? First, it has plenty of storage for all your sharpening tools — sharpening

stones, jigs — even a grinder. But more important, it features a sliding top that opens to reveal a drop-in plastic tub. You can fill the tub with water and use it with your waterstones — just like a sink. Then simply empty out the tub and slide the top closed when you're done sharpening.
