Any good sharpening services in Milwaukee area?

Oh fine, I'll do it myself! :-)

Love the jig, didn't want to buy the Veritas thingy.

You are the wind beneath my wings.

Thanks,
Phil

I am willing to bet you will be more pleased with your own sharpening
results than your service you send them to. Plus, You will get your blades
back in the planer the SAME day!

I use to use the woodcraft sharpening service and I always saw grooves in
the newly sharpened edge. You know what they say: "If you want it done
right, do it yourself!"

Learn to sharpen them yourself. I sharpen my own jointer and planer knives
and get better results than the service I use to send them off to.

You need ONE jig and you can sharpen both your jointer and planer knives.
See my jig/fixture section of my web page.
