I got most of the work done on a special work rest before being called away on my day job...I'll be able to finish it later this week.
The idea is to be able to grind a slight taper onto each side of a blade...as opposed to just a flat blade with a primary bevel. It'll all make sense once it's done. I hope. Or I've wasted a lot of time, and aluminum.

| The center of the rest has a 2 degree ramp milled into it. The far side is .070" above the main surfaces. |
 |
| This should illustrate the ramp a little better. |
 |
| Temporarily clamped to the tooling arm to check fit. |
I should be able to get this finished up this coming weekend. I still need to drill and tap holes on the tooling arm. Then we shall see if it was a good idea, or total rubbish.
