I ended up at Axminster in Warrington today. I was originally going to go to G&S near Penrith but it wasnt much further to Axminster. I did ask about sharpening systems there. He advised me on the Tru-Grind with on of their Axminster grinders. I did ask about the Pro-Edge, but they dont keep them. Probably because it's produced by what they consider a rival company. I will probably pop up to Penrith next week to have a look at the Pro-Edge system. I might have a local friend who can do the sharpening until I decide what to go for.
I did come away with a few bits and pieces though. One of the main things was the Deluxe adjustable pen mandrel. Jacobs chuck for drilling the blanks and a few other sundries. I'm getting there.
