Interesting they only offer 1 micron spray; and no mention of a ceramic lapping wheel. A HSS or carbide hand graver would be finished on a ceramic wheel with 0.5 or 0.25 micron spray, rather than a diamond wheel. Its a nice looking machine, and I like some aspects of its design, but the vertical wheel would not hold spray very well. That's why one of the favourite power hones for graver sharpening has a horizontal wheel (as does its main competitor).
