I do the major sharpening on a variable speed fine wheel( made by delta, bought at lowes).. I have jigs, for the purpose but rarely use them... i'm good enough "by eye" to put the proper edge on them... you still need to burnish them on a stone or strap, I like to leave a thin burr on my skew that will take a fine chip for finish work... it cuts down on the sanding... i only use the power wheel at the start and maybe once during the season if i let them go too far or do a bunch of maple.. the rest is done with a few strokes on a fine india stone when they are not cutting smoothly, and because I use mostly WRC.. they need to be SHARP or risk tear outs..
