I still wonder if one could cut a square board, drill a hole in the center, then cut a gap at right angles, using woodworking tools. I don't have the right tools or skills to do this with high accuracy, but maybe someone with good woodshop tools could do it, to the .01" accuracy of Bill's drawings.
Of course, the wood would eventually wear out. AFAICT, the reason wood is easy to work is precisely because it sheers off easily. One might need to make replacements, if you use it a lot.
Is .01 accuracy good enough to create reasonably even edges?
II tried a few cheap skate sharpening tools that were made so poorly, they did an awful job. Did you try this one? Wow would one enforce the ROH - or will it gradually flatten the hollow?
Kaitsu, you've already got real professional grade sharpening tools. So is making your own hand tool just a fun challenge for you?
