Product Description
The JoolTool Intro Kit includes the compact multifunction JoolTool system and a basic set of accessories for sharpening, polishing, sanding, cutting, deburring, and grinding on metal, wood, and other materials. The tool uses discs, called backpads with a spiral design that provides the user with a clear view of the workpiece for increased accuracy. The backpads have fins that circulate air to keep the JoolTool and the workpiece cool, even when using maximum speed. The variable-speed motor can be adjusted between 500 and 5,000 RPM. The backpad twists and locks onto the tool's spindle for a secure hold without requiring mounting hardware or tools. The 3M PSA (pressure-sensitive adhesive) abrasive discs adhere and lock to the backpad for quick changes and ease of use.
The JoolTool has a compact, durable aluminum and impact-resistant ABS body, and a hood that can be removed for additional clearance for working on larger items. The Jooltool has a side handle and can be undocked/detached from its base to allow freehand sanding and polishing of large objects and surfaces. It also can be mounted horizontally on its base for classic buffer-style finishing and polishing. A dust collection system can be attached to the hood's vacuum port for removal of dust and debris from the grinding area for safety visibility. The JoolTool occupies less than one square foot on a tabletop or bench. A wide range of accessories are available for this tool (sold separately) that expand its use for professionals and hobbyists working in lapidary, jewelry making, woodworking, tool sharpening, and many other fields.
Accessories in this kit include 3 backpads, 4 3M Trizact aluminum-oxide abrasive discs, 3 3M Cubitron ceramic abrasive discs, 1 wool felt polishing disc, and 1 oz. polishing compound bar. The kit includes one coarse (400 grit), medium (1000 grit), fine (1500 grit) and very fine (3000 grit) 3M Trizact aluminum-oxide abrasive disc for general-purpose honing and sharpening of metal as well as beveling diacrylic glass. The 3M Cubitron ceramic abrasive discs include one coarse (80 grit), medium (120 grit), and fine (220 grit) for grinding wood and metals. 3M Cubitron ceramic abrasives are self-sharpening and better performing than aluminum oxide. Use them for high-speed steel and difficult-to-grind materials. The polishing compound coats the wool felt disc to buff most metals, including gold, silver, and brass, to a lustrous finish. The 3M abrasive discs are labeled with grit and micron size for quick reference, and have a PSA backing that adheres to the backpad. The backpads do not require truing and will not deform with use.

Getting accessories
By Chuck
The basic machine is great for none precise work but the 3M grinding and polishing pads are very expensive and don't last very long.

Sharp Tools
By Joseph H. Price
The tool seems well made, however there is a learning curve as with any new tool. With a little practice my tools are very sharp with very little effort.
Great tool, my tools will last a lot longer now.
Thanks
Joe

By Marven Riggins
If you've ever watched Anie demo this sharpener at a woodworking show you'll agree with me.."they're awesome". Before I bought one I gave her a 2" chisel with a big nick in the middle and she made it mirror sharp in 2 minutes. And what's best is when you get it home and try it out, it's easy to duplicate results!
Thanks Anie
