Summary

Get it? "Honeboy", like "homeboy", only for honing chisels and plane irons? Yeah, I'm hip like that.

Compared to commercial products like:

Besides price, mine has a few great advantages:

  • 100% rustproof
  • more versatile(see below)
  • rides more stable and smooth on TWO, wide-footprint helical-tread wheels

"Versatile"? Yes! You can sharpen items anywhere from about 1/2 inch to 2 1/2 inches wide or reverse the clamp for smaller objects (compare pic 4 and 5). If you need even larger objects, just make a longer sliding dovetail.

Also, since you're sharpening stuff, I found this sharpening stone holder on thingiverse you might also want:
