August 18Aug 18 comment_380107 I got a used Jool Tool a while ago from a friend that was a carver. I've never used it. Doing some research, it appears that not only can it do sharpening, but also things for jewelers like grinding or buffing. The wheels are such that your piece is underside and you can see the surface of the piece. I do remember seeing these at the woodworking shows. Other than that, I don't know much about it other than I see used ones going for $400+ and new ones up to $1100. Anyone know much about these or how to sell one? Mine is an older version, but appears to be the same.https://www.ottofrei.com/products/jooltool-x-polishing-system-jewelry-polishing-kit-jtx-jpkJOOLTOOL_Manual_2022_for_web.pdf Report

August 20Aug 20 comment_380178 I've never even heard of one.... guessing those "blades" are some kind of hard rubber with embedded grit?Seems kinda Billy Mays to me, but who knows, I'm a little quick to judge. That DVD is a hint, isn't it? I guess Youtubers didn't invent that little trick (I see it a lot on oil change vids, get the GF in a stretchy tank top and have her do it while you film).I would probably ebay it myself. With shipping being so pricey now, not sure it's worth it, but who knows? Report
