The mini spinners from blackstone are $55 and the larger ones are around $85. the BFD shapers from blademaster are around $150. You need a system that will hold one of these spinners and dress your wheel. it can be integrated into the sharpener, or be a standalone piece that you touch up to the grinding wheel. at a minimum you're looking at hundreds of dollars to let a traditional system do FBV or BFD.

Can anyone clarify that is how the machines work? If it was more simple turn a knob or make a few adjustments I might have been sharpening my own skates by now
