Building a DIY Sharpening System for Knives and Chisels 2.0 - Fast, easy and safe

09:07 Previous design - youtube.com/watch?v=MqZRSJsNErI

What I have improved in the sharpener:
- made it safer
- added a support for maintaining the exact angle of sharpening, so that it is less dependent on the skill of the operator
- replaced the sandpaper with silicon carbide (more durability of the abrasive)
- made mobile
