    Stiles has been great to me. Shipped me a part from Germany air freight to my door for free. Does not get any better than that.

    Tech support is always available via phone and is very good.

    No, only one direction. The cut quality is superb--very smooth, no sanding required at all. The inserts seam to last forever--the new diamond coating must be working!

    What happened to Invicta?

    Love their shapers--what happened to them? Don't see anything on internet searches. It would be nice to know their history.
