Highly Recommend
I purchased this several months ago and used it right away. It is super easy and quick, and put a very nice edge my lathe tools with just a pass or two.

Great Product - Great Price
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!

There should be better instructions.
I never sharpened a tool before and I thought this would be straight forward. It needs better instructions. I can get a better grind free hand than I can with this system. If you are trying to get a arch for your bowl gaouge using this system will give you a straight cut at best. I found it removes the point and leaves the sides concave. I can fix it free hand but then why do I need the system?

So far it looks good, well built.
I just received this today and over all I am happy with it. I have a Delta 6" bench top grinder and I ordered the pro Grind for the 6" grinders. When I centered the base under the wheel the legs on the base hit the bottom of the grinder. Which made it difficult to get the base centered on the grinding wheel. I was able to resolve this by putting spacers on the bolts that secure the grinder to the bench which elevated the grinder and it all worked out. The other things I noticed were the top of the multi ground mount bar is worn and mushroomed over like it was used or e inssomeone ground it off. Also the instructions that came in the box with the setup blocks were for a wolverine veri-Grind, not for the ProGrind Multi-Grind Jig. I thought that was odd and that along with the wear on the Multi Ground Bar made me think this may wane an open box return or perhaps was used by someone testing and comparing different systems. The only complaint I have with the system so far is that when you use the cam lock on the base to lock the bars in please during setup the can will actually move the bar in or out as it tightens throwing your setup off. Will have to be something I'll figure out with more use.

Has parts wolverine and others charge extra for
I liked everything about it well made, instructions couldn't be easier to follow. And Mostly Razor Sharp Tools Consistently.

Poor directions and description.
Very difficult to setup. Directions are vague at best. The skew sharpening side is worthless because I can't get my skew close enough to touch the blade when attached to the miter platform. Also should be more clear that you need to have a grinder with a small base. My base extends under my grinding wheels. I've spent the last 4 hours trying to figure out how to mount this thing so that it works. Seems like I wasted $140+. Missed my return window, so now I have an expensive, ineffective paper weight.Also the directions show a Oneway gouge attachment with 5 settings but it came with a different one.I have other items purchased from Peachtree that have been trouble free. This is not one of them.
