While I am aware that most machinists or hobbyists should be acquainted with end mill body, flue, and face angles, this tool comes with no specs. There are 2 YouTube videos stating the necessity of hours, days, and weeks to figure out this instrument, it is still an ongoing puzzle to most. The unit does work for sharpening the face as stated but makes it very difficult to use due to the lack of angles and base instructions for use. I currently have this tool being mostly functional but still not totally dialed in for the angles to installation locations on the grinder. You can achieve what looks to be a perfect end result, yet the cutting face is not parallel to the end mill body. This tool is great for somebody not in any need of immediate sharpening end results and plenty of time on their hands to get it dialed in. While the price is fair, I would strongly advise against any purchase of this tool, until the supplier furnishes any base specifications with at least marginal "how to use" instructions. Many form a habit of blaming a tool for poor end results, which is normally quite the operator's fault and not the tool's. This is one of my only exceptions to that opinion.
