Thought I'd post this for you kme guys because when I was looking for ideas it looked like no one had made on yet. It serves the same function as the edge pro drill stop collar. After the first hone butt the hone to the bottom of the guide, slide the stop up, and tighten it down. I needed to be able to adjust for differing hone thickness more easily then by marking everytime or using an angle cube. If you need the angle lower just flip the guide bearing upside down and butt the hone to that. The front piece that wraps around was tricky as the bends have to be exactly 90 degrees or the piece won't sit square. For those of you that don't know what the drill stop collar is here is a link that shows what it is and how it works:http://youtube.com/watch?v=HoHW3TUdz5s

Intuitive. Easy solution to the problem.
Thank you sir. Actually, it was a comment of yours on here that got the ball rolling. I was reading one of the KME vs edge pro posts before I bought my system and you asked a guy how he adjusted for hone thickness without the drill stop collar. That's also where I got the idea to use the angle cube on each hone. This ways much less cumbersome
