Jan,
As you know, I hope, I make sharpening tool as a hobby. I do not know if you have seen my homepage, http://www.edgepal.com visit and study my tools please.
My tools are precision tools. My tools Chef can be adjusted down to 1/100 part of 1 degree as you can see on this picture:

I have make the scratches diagonal in different directions so it is possible to se both angles.
I used a Norton diamond sharpener on 25 micron to make this - you can se the scrathes.
Look also at the backbevel that have a perfect line.
Chef can also make multipel bevels one edge - and go forward and back between the bevels.
Now, to my question
Chef fix the blades in postion on the grinding table so that they cannnot move. This are done with strong magnets, 7 kilo power each, and Chef can use 3 magnets if wanted - 21 kilo magnetic power. The angle are fixed and the guide rod are 5 mm stainless steel.
I can clearly se with the help by a 3 X magnifying glas that there is a sifferent in angle between moving the sharpener forwards and backwards - we are now talking some singel parts of ?/1000 parts of 1 degree. How many parts it is I cannot meassure... My question is - can you?
The reason i ask you is what you have constructed to your Tormek. Amazing! I Love that construction!
becouse of your construction I rhink that you have seen the same thing I have seen on small variations in angle depending on what direction the sharpener is moving across the edge. I like to know, and understand, why this happen
