UPGRADE Leading Edge Angle Guide

Big help by adding this to my 1 x30 belt grinder machines. Thanks for making this item available.

Really good upgrade for getting closer to the belt and awkward butt ends of some knives.

This latest version of the angle plate addresses a shortcoming the previous version which, due to the nature of the plates construction on the right side, blocked the knifes balustrade short of allowing full blade length from the belt. I need to check the plates mounting/adjustment screw pathways on the 1x30 Vevor to see if they now allow closer plate positioning to the belt/platten. Previous versions were such that it resulted in a larger gap than most would find desirable for edge leading work on an Vevor. Because the Harbor Freight’s platten is roughly half as thick as the Vevor (~3mm vs 6mm) that thinner platten would allow a closer fit when using the standard angle plate. The thickness of the Vevor platten holds the angle adjustment base & adjustment plate, & thus the blade, a bit farther away from the platten resulting in a gap. I’m addressing that aspect by milling and tapping a thinner and shorter platten for ease of fit. That shortening of the stock Vevor platten is necessary so the angle adjuster on the platten lines up with the plane of the belt as it comes off the top roller. II’ll update this review once I’ve checked or modified parts to determine fitment.
