About 20 years ago I bought a sharpening stone out of the miscellaneous box at Mitre 10 for $1, and now it is starting to get a bit of a hollow. I'm thinking I've probably got my money's worth out of it, and so I've been looking at Bunnings, eBay and AliExpress.
Ebay is selling worn out cruddy bits of land fill for $125, whereas Bunnings has some reasonable looking aluminium oxide stones for$10~$39.
AliExpress have a good range, including corundum, quartz sand, "Green carbon oil stone ", whatever that is, all in grits from 400 to 10,000.
I mostly use mine for wood turning and ordinary chisels, and rarely a wood plane.
Any gurus on this topic?
