Kakbritva Thickness Compensator

[mniels]

I picked up a Luch from Gritomatic recently, and I was wondering if anyone knows of an aftermarket thickness compensator for the Kakbritva setups?

I have just been adjusting the sharpening angle to compensate, but a compensator would be much faster. It does not look like anything is built in to the system, and of course the instructions are in Russian, so I can't find any information that way. The Google has not been much help either.

According to Gritomatic's web page , it comes with a thickness compensator.

O.B.

I don't have thickness compensator on my sharpener but if I had one I would just for fun check accuracy with angle cube.
My feeling says it introduces a small angle error but I could be wrong.

If it does, I certainly can't see it. Maybe I'll reach out to Gritomatic.

Honestly, it doesn't take much time to do it with the inclinometer, so I am not that worried about it. Certainly more accurate.
