I always did mine with a file, but I can see where your system would be superior as the angle is always constant. Reason I asked about the stone is that it looks and sounds like a water stone, they cut fast but wear fast as well. If it is a water the oil will plug it up quite quickly, the other thing about water stones is they can be flattened. Use very course sand paper on a flat surface, and soak everything with water, then rub the stone on the sand paper. If you mark the stones surface with a pencil you can see where the paper is cutting it. Very ingenious by the way, I like stuff like that, men makin stuff. LOL
