This comes with just the jig for getting the proper angles on your tools...you just need a 6 or 8" grinder to mount on a base with the jig. It is heavy duty and easy to use, wouldn't want to be without it!

Kristopher, The grinding jig comes with everything you need to attach the system to your grinder. since I had a 6" grinder, I had to "raise" mine to make the jig work correctly. The instructions were very helpful regarding this. I get great edges on my lathe tools now.

Kristopher, Yes it will shapren all your lathe tools. You need a grinder with fine wheels but everything else is included. This is very easy to setup and use. I teach school and allow shop students to use.

The basic comes with a rest and a pocket extension (gouges and skews--though I bought the Skew Attachment also) and 2 adjustable mounts. I like a fingernail profile ground on my spindle gouges. You'll need a Vari-Grind 2. It costs another $75. All 3 Jigs cost just under $200

Kristopher, you get a full set of instructions for set up and grinding gouges, chisels and skews. There is also a CD that comes with the unit that provides how-to videos that I found useful.Richard M.

Kristopher- You get just the basics with the kit. If you plan on sharpening gouges with specialty grinds, like a fingernail grind, you need get the varigrind also. It doesn't come with the kit. You may also want to purchase the skew guide. That should get you going. It is a good system and I've used mine quite a bit. Heavily built, will last forever.

everything you need for assembly is in the box, you may have to make a platform under your grinder to attach the jig to it, I've been using it for several months, and it works great for any kind of sharpening.

There is a chain, bar, sharpening stone and the attachment that fits on the end of the bar to sharpen it with. Once you buy this, if you need to replace the chain, you would just order the chain. It comes with a chain and new sharpening stone.

you buy that separately. go with a nova chuck, and this is a nice lathe, but, forget woodcraft.

I use the Lansky sharpening system and sharpen it by sections. I've also used the diamond edge "steel" to rought it in before I finished it. Works great for me!

It is only comes with the treads mentioned. You might ask PSI ( http://www.pennstateind.com/store/spindle-adapters.html ) or your lathe maufacturer if they have an adapter. This chuck seems pretty heavy for a no. 1 Morse

I'm not at home, but if I recall correctly, it comes with an assortment of extra belts, maybe two of each? Don't misunderstand, you'll eventually need more, but it's a good start. I sharpened about 8-12 knives, an axe and more. It also comes with an "edge-guide" unmounted...ez to set up. I can't put it plainer than in my review; *buy one*!!!

You can buy a chain sharpening kit relatively cheap at a hardware store that includes a file and a guide for the proper angle to file the chain teeth which is important. The sharpening instructions are pretty clear and easy to follow.

Mine was just a block but ,when I ordered it, there was no mention of scissors or sharpening steel so it may be something extra they added.

Sorry so late, but its not a dumb question. I brought a sharper from walmart (Revlon) and it has the small and large sharper connected together. You can also try you neighborhood drug stores for the large sharper. I hope this helps.

Mine didn't come with a sharpening kit. I bought the kit separately from Amazon.

Besides what you see in the photo, no. This tool comes with a cutting, spade, round and soldering tips. This a good tool for the hobbyist not the professional.

Mine as well did not come with instructions-but believe it sharpens everything very, very well. Do not regret buying this item. Sorry

Michael, I can't really give you a detailed answer on this question, since I had to send the lathe back. It did come with everything it said in the listing, but it had parts installed backwards, a broken switch on the control box and a cracked pulley housing. I ended up sending it back, even though they affered me a reduced price. I just couldn't justify keeping a damaged lathe. I ended up buying one from Rockler.

My kit is new and unused and there is not a single stone for sharpening a chain saw chain. They may be something that can be ordered individually but this kit will be of no use to you as far as sharpening your chain - don't order it.

Everything but the lathe tools and bowl chuck. I recommend at least a bowl gouge and a scrapper. This is a good lathe for making bowls.

Yes, I can't remember the exact tools mine came with, but they do come with it!
