#1 | | Larger Blade Support for Worksharp WS3000 Name: Jeremy City: Charlotte State: NC County: Mecklenburg Join Date: Mar 2006 Age: 31  03-12-2008, 02:35 PM
Though I don't have one, I emailed Worksharp with an improvement suggestion that would definitely make me buy one ... and that was to support a wider blade in the pre-fixed angles where the chisel goes ...
This was the response ...
##################### Your request is a common one and therefore we are in development of an accessory that will retro-fit the Work Sharp WS3000. This accessory will accommodate flat blades up to 3” wide. Look for this new accessory late this fall at Rockler and Woodcraft!

At least they are going to retrofit, I figured that they were going to make a Worksharp 3001 and everyone with the 3000 would be scr3wed.

It makes sharpening sooooo much easier. I'm pretty sure some of the accessories like the glass wheels, abrasives etc. will come down in price once the initial market has been filled.
