      I don't know , I'll look at the ebay purchase info to see what the   
   grind medium is - the closest match I can find is a diamond bonded   
   grinding media .   
      My fixture  has 2 angles on the bottom , cutting edge and back relief   
   . The collet holder is indexed for 2 3 4 and 6 flutes . Does a right   
   fine job too .   
      I did find the carbide cutters I was looking for . I can cut chunks   
   oversize with a diamond blade and grind to final shape after brazing   
   them to the shank .
