[Woodcarver] Power stropping belt

[Steve Nordhauser]

I didn't see them at Lee Valley but the product name is Surgi-Sharp by 
Wheatland Construction Corp.  I don't remember where I got mine but I 
paid around $20.
Here it is cheaper:

I find that it is easier to strop when I don't have to move, just rotate 
for gouges- I keep the angle better.  I suspect it is a 'walking and 
chewing gum' kind of thing but hey, you play the cards you are dealt.
