Try sticking with it.  Take a knife that is already sharp, use the sharpie method to match the angle, and then use the deburring wheel.  It took me a month or two to get really good at using the T4.  I might be interested in the Japanese Waterstone Wheel, depending on the price.

If the knives you are sharpening are extremely dull it takes more passes to restore the edge. More passes not more pressure is also an important thing to remember. I am restoring some old knives for my daughter and they took more time to sharpen than normal. Watch the videos and follow their recommendations closely. You can get an extremely sharp edge with the standard stone and I would leave the Japanese stone in the box until you become good at the standard sharpening steps.
