I, unfortunately, was looking around on Amazon and came across the Jet Wet Sharpener. Amazon has it for $229.99. There are 3 additional jigs that I would need (want?) and they are $70 for all 3 jigs, plus a dinky little cover for less than $8. Total was $307.37 with free shipping on everything. (I don't have to pay sales tax on tools, but there isn't any tax anyway.)

I am aware, of course, that it is a Tormex copy, but was wondering if anyone was using one before I hit the "place order" button.

Thanks for any input.

P.S. Woodcraft shows just the sharpener for $299.99 and the jigs are well over double the price of Amazon's.

I have had one for about 3 months now. It works great. I use several of the Tomark? jigs and they work just fine. I really like the variable speed feature.

Even though it's a tormek knock off, it has more features and everything from the tormek is interchangeable. I have the jet and I can sharpen tools that will give you a barber shop shave.:D
