Don't know what else to say!

I FINLAY dug it out of the box, watched the video and in less than an hour, sharped 4 chisels to razor sharp.

It works as advertised.

Thanks Stan for the great buy!LanceK38480.5833217593

I use mine a lot also. Once you get a good edge the stropping wheel works great..

I've had mine for a few weeks now. Its amazing how much easier a sharp tool is to use. I didn't realize how bad I was at sharpening until I used the Tormek.

I was showing a friend the Tormek the other day. We took the blade out of an old spokeshave his dad had given him. In about 2 minutes we had it looking like a mirror. I think I might have changed his mind about it being overpriced.

Or maybe Tormek should just set up a "sharpening station" at the Symposia.... and everyone can bring their beat up tools...

THAT would be the way to sell units.....
