Pro Grind Sharpening System for 6 Inch Grinders to Sharpen Lathe Turning Tools, Chisels, Skews, Bowl Spindle Gouges • Includes Setup Blocks and Quad Jig for 6 inch Grinders

Saw this Pro Grind Sharpening system on YouTube and then read the reviews on Amazon, I have tried some other sharpening methods with little success so I order the kit albeit all the way from the US. I followed the Youtube instruction video and instructions that came with the Pro Grind and it took about 20 minutes to put together. And my first attemp resulted in a really sharp bowl gouge. I tried it on some wood turning and was amazed how well it shaved the wood. It may seem expensive but in my opinion its well worth it, also if you add all the parts up its not expensive. Ive struggled with blunt tools for too long. Some reviews said there was issues with the claming system but I cant for the life of me find any faults with that. I wish Id been told to buy a sharpening system when I purchased my lathe and tools. Ive sharpened a parting tool and roughing gouge and the rsults were spot on. I would recomend this kit as it works as it should and has all the necessary parts to sharpen various tools repetively.

Delivery was prompt,well packaged with very clear setup instructions. I watched the U tube instructional prior to starting the assembly. It went very well until I went to insert the long chisel slide arm,it kept binding halfway in. After a bit of frustration I realized the slide tube had a distortion of about 60 thousands in the center. I sent an email to the vendor and got an immediate response. I provided my order number and address and recieved a response within hours that a replacement was on the way. WOW, that's great customer service!! Once I got around that little problem,the system works great. My chisels all look much better then they have in a long while!

I read all the reviews. I like to start with the 1-star reviews and work my way up. I don't know if the manufacturer addressed all of the issues, but I didn't experience any of them. The material used is even heavier than I had hoped. The cams and arms slide smoothly and lock without issue. I really like all of the different setup jigs. They are made of plastic but they are heavy duty and I see no reason why they won't last a lifetime. They aren't used under pressure or with a spinning wheel. I can't see a reason why plastic isn't a great choice for these jigs. The brass tightening wheel is secure to the steel screw. I tried very hard (with only my hands) to break the two apart and could not. I'm very mechanically inclined and I found everything very easy to understand and install. Everything was packaged with professional care. Not a single scratch on any piece. The finish on the parts seems very durable. A few of the welds (for example on small nuts that allow for the thumb locks) seem a bit small. But there are four on each nut and they are all solid. They don't have to take a lot of pressure so I believe they will be more than ample. (I'm just one of those guys that thinks more weld is better than less. However on these smaller nuts, more weld would probably cause way more issues and like I said, I don't thing it is necessary.) I would not hesitate to recommend this product to anyone. I did see that some people ordered 8" when they really needed 6" grinder versions. But the manufacturer is very clear in their description and on the box which one you are ordering. May 22 Update - I've been using the jig for a couple of months now and I really like it. I get perfect grinds on my lathe chisels every time. Since my angles are always the same, sharpening takes very little time and removes very little metal. I sharpen before each project and run a project every-other-day. Very nice product!

Good product
