I've decided to invest in a sharpener for my shop and have narrowed it down to the Tormek or the Makita. I've heard rave reviews for both from those who use them, but besides price (the makita is cheaper) and bevel (Tormek radiused bevel, Makita flat bevel) are there any characteristics that really makes one system superior to the other? I don't mind spending the extra cash for the Tormek if it's a superior system, but saving money is always a good thing whenever possible. I also heard of folks who've bought one or the other and then changed their minds later. I know I only want to buy once.
I am, as always looking for sage advice. I'm about sandpapered out.
