    TEMCo Auto Sharpener - User Review Thread

    Philbert's correct: The price we had before was an introductory price, and something I made sure was clear at the beginning of this thread as to avoid any misconceptions. The reason we had it at a low price was to allow us to interact with our customers and to make some progress on the FP1000...

    I just wanted to say thank you to everyone at OPE that has been part of this process. I truly value making sure I get products out there that people enjoy using. Regarding the FP1000, we are able to clearly see where the product does well, but also where its lacking. Criticism is a catalyst for...

    Hm, that is odd. Just a quick question: I notice in the photo that you provided that the chain weight isn't also photographed. Are you using the chain weight during operation?

    Thanks @Philbert for letting others know about the CBN wheels for the FP1000! I'm really excited to have these available for sale at $65 per piece. So you might be asking: "how are you keeping the CBN costs low?" Part of it is keeping costs down where we can, e.g. going with no-frills yet...

    Glad to see you got so many chains through and that you're enjoying it! I'd also like to see the mod you made to your wheel. That would be interesting. And as Phil noted, the CBN wheels will be available soon after we finish QCing.

    TEMCo Auto Sharpener - User Review Thread

    @Philbert has explained to me at length via e-mail as to why he couldn't do more reviews recently. As these pertain to his private affairs I won't explain his situation, but I'd like to simply note that it has been explained to me. In addition, I think the answer he provided here is sufficiently...

    TEMCo Auto Sharpener - User Review Thread

    I just wanted to pop in and say that I've been lurking and reading everything, but didn't really want to interject myself since everyone's playing around with the unit. I've refrained from commenting how to do something cause I'm also interested in seeing how everyone naturally uses the product...

    TEMCo Auto Sharpener - User Review Thread

    Thanks for that quick little review @panolo! We talked a bit about this in the other forum and also wanted to post here that I'm glad you were able to contact our customer support. We understand that the FP1000 has a little bit of getting acquainted with at first, but trust me that it'll become...

    TEMCo Auto Sharpener - User Review Thread

    So here's a quick explanation as to why widening the groove won't just solve everything: yes, widening the groove to accommodate 063 chain will work, but doing so causes problems for clamping smaller chains. So, for example, if all you run through it 063, milling out the groove will let you run...
