Sharpening gets cleaner, simpler, and more efficient with the TF-2 Tilt Feet. Designed specifically for the Tormek T-8, these small additions tilt the machine slightly to encourage better water drainage, keeping your workspace neater and reducing cleanup time.
The incline helps guide excess water back into the trough, especially useful when sharpening longer tools. For added flexibility, the TF-2 also allows you to use your T-8 without the grindstone attached, which is ideal for certain setups or transportation. Built for practicality, they secure the main shaft during transport and can be stored directly on the Universal Support when not in use. Whether you're in your home workshop or moving your gear between jobs, these feet help maintain the performance and cleanliness you value. If you prefer DIY solutions, the free 3D printable file lets you make a pair yourself, ensuring accessibility without compromising on function.
Sharpening should support your craft, not disrupt it. The TF-2 Tilt Feet are designed for woodworkers who value precision, efficiency, and a tidy workspace. Rather than adding another tool to manage, these subtle feet improve how your Tormek T-8 functions in the background. You’ll spend less time cleaning up water and more time focused on the task at hand. Whether you’re shaping a chisel edge or maintaining your carving knives, the TF-2 helps create a more controlled and consistent sharpening environment.
It also brings a layer of flexibility to your setup, giving you the option to operate the machine even when the grindstone is removed. For those transporting their Tormek, the Tilt Feet help stabilize the shaft, reducing unnecessary wear during travel. When not in use, they stay conveniently stored on the Universal Support—always within reach, never in the way. Whether you buy them or print them at home, the TF-2 Tilt Feet are a small addition that fits naturally into your workflow and helps you get more out of your sharpening routine.
By slightly tilting your Tormek T-8, the TF-2 Tilt Feet help direct water runoff back into the trough through the drip guard. This minimizes splashing and prevents excess water from reaching your workbench, keeping your space cleaner and more efficient.
Long sharpening sessions can lead to puddles or water trails around your machine. These feet provide a simple solution by creating a natural incline that channels water where it belongs, saving you time on maintenance so you can stay focused on your craft.
Whether you're in between stone replacements or working with jigs that don't require the grindstone, the Tilt Feet allow you to operate your T-8 without it. This makes your sharpening station more adaptable to different tasks and setups.
When moving your Tormek, especially between job sites or workshops, the Tilt Feet help secure the main shaft, reducing movement and wear. It’s a small touch that helps protect your machine’s longevity during travel.
When not in use, the TF-2 Tilt Feet store neatly on the Universal Support. There’s no need for extra storage space or accessories—just a streamlined addition that integrates easily with your current setup.
These feet won’t interfere with the RB-180. You can enjoy full compatibility with your rotating base setup, allowing you to tilt your machine and still rotate it smoothly for different sharpening positions.
These feet are engineered to fit the latest Tormek T-8 machines perfectly. That level of specificity ensures a snug, reliable fit without modification or guesswork.
