    I've sharpened a set of LS3 steel from brand new on my Sparx and never had to anything special with risers to avoid any problems.

    I'm guessing no since he posted a day or two ago about coupons/discounts as he was still undecided on buying one.

    Great to hear about the customer service experience!

    Agreed, I've had mine a month and a half at this point and sharpened pretty frequently on it and haven't had any kinks. I'd go for one if you are interested it.

    Thanks guys. With it being brand new steel, I want to try and hit it from the right height from day 1. Appreciate the feedback.

    Hey Guys. I just picked up some new LS3 steel and want to make sure I'm sharpening it properly from the start. Which of these heights do you think is ideal to use? These pics are with the ring contacting the toe first. Thanks for the help! Height 5 Height 4

    How many passes do you guys usually do when switching hollows? I want to give 3/4" a try as compared to my normal 5/8" and just trying to figure out if 10 passes is necessary or if you guys find less will get it done. I will probably do the marker test to be sure but figured I'd ask anyway.

    I received my Sparx this week and so far I am very happy with it. The setup was very easy and the build quality of the unit seems top notch. My son and I both skated this morning on fresh sharpenings from it and everything felt great.

    My new Easton Pro 10 gloves showed up today. Can't wait to start breaking them in this weekend though my youngest is getting a head start!

    It seems the quality of sharpening I get at my LHS is pretty hit or miss as they have a wide range of employees in terms of age/experience. This device is extremely tempting to me with having a 4 year old who's skating 2-3 times a week and then I also skate 2-3 times a week. Break even on the cost will be a while but there is definitely something to be said for convenience and consistency. What to do, what to do :-)

    I picked up a set of the inserts from the Hockey Monkey store in New Jersey about a week ago. I've skated about 3 hours with them now and so far so good. They definitely make things more comfortable and it definitely feels like my foot is more planted in the skate.
