Attached is a picture of what I finally came up with. Its pretty much the same setup as the OP had, just on the offside of the machine. this should allow me to keep the wheel mounted while using the lathe. I can adjust the platform with the Wolverine jig regardless of where the headstock need to be. Results of using the jig are impressive: the wheel runs true with just the single recessed washer and cuts like crazy. I always heard that the CBN wheels worked well and now I can vouch for that. I sharpened all my tools in one short afternoon, except for the bowl gouges. I am still not quite sure how to use the Vari-grind attachment...gotta watch the video again!
