Here's a simple question. What is the purpose of this tool? (part # DTXR1190)

looks like it is either for re serrating your brushes, or re surfacing the face.... it looks decent, as long as the buit stays good..

Have used a serrator similar to the one you sent the link to and have saved a ton of money on brushes. Have not had to buy a new bit yet and it DOES cut serations very well! I usally do not cut the brushes more than a couple of timesas they do tend to overheat over several uses. Ralf13

Slider the fuzzy brush cutter seems to work well,from people I've talked to that have it.I've got a cutter that was made out of tool steel that I bought years ago from a guy named Tony Staples, Currently a Maverick driver out in California, and it is still as sharp as the day I bought it.It's just not a serrater type it's a diamond type.

I've been using the fussy brush cutter for about a month. I do about 12 sets of brushes a week and it works quite well. It's manual so there's no heat build up. :thumbsup:

The different sizes is also a big plus for 19turn or stock motor rebuild... :thumbsup:

Its the best out there!!!
