Have a look at your Inbox for a copy of the simple instructions that came with my jig of that type.

Best regards

Thank you Keith for the rapid response.

Bill,I don't know yet, the expert opinion seems to be not, but it can't be worse than my hand held attempts! Andy Parker, Agate House Lapidary Ulverston, Cumbria, England snipped-for-privacy@agatehouse.co.uk

I think one of the problems with this sharpener is that rotating the drill in the holder also extends it toward the wheel and the slot in the base then has to be reset. For proper sharpening it is important that the rotary flute position at the wheel be correct in regard to the swing axis. Somewhere on the net (NEMES?) is a photo of one mounted with a separate feedscrew for adjusting the distance to the wheel.
