For those that are interested in total pricing...
Mine came to $193.00 with shipping via DHL Ground.
2 cutters at $78.50 each
1 guide and collar at $28.50
Shipping at $7.50
Shipping was pretty quick considering the time of year. I ordered on the 19th.
Like the pictures above indicate....the quality of the tools is exceptional.
Merry Christmas.

Damn that looks really easy to make yourself. It looks like it would work like a charm. But I am not at all impressed with all the tool markings.
And also with there only being that many teeth, they will bite really well, maybe to much, so make sure you have a very stout angle drill, or what ever you have that you are going to use for it.

I was a bit surprised at the tool markings too, I've had two of these tools and they were very smooth. The markings shouldn't effect anything though.
Here are (or were) mine.

PS see the price...I hate ebay but whoever won these got a hell of a deal because I paid way more for them and they were only used on one engine.

I think because of the clarity of the pics, they look deeper than they are. My exhaust cutters have tool marks, however, they are not at all deep.
As for the "making cutters yourself" comment.... please don't go there.
Hope you are enjoying the PACNORWEST weather.

I know exactly what you are saying, how they are not that deep. But If I was selling them to people like this, I think I would have a little better craftsmanship.. I mean, I machine for a living as well. My standards are a bit different, as my opinion. I am not trying to hate, I was just stating what I thought on the tool markings. The tool in general is a very good and stout looking setup. I would buy it as well, IF I didn't have the meens and tools to make it my self.
And everything up here is great in the PACNORWEST, I am watching snow fall as I am typing this. So its a wonderfull christmas, and I hope you have one as well.

Me!! Thats what I do for the Navy... And actually in reality, I would not use a CNC to machine this, It would be quicker to do it manual...
Captain Whidbey??? Never heard of it. I have only been here 8 months, and really have kept to myself, with all the hunting and fishing. I don't go to the bars or taverns anymore, So I am not sure what exactly you are refering to.

They look great. but you will have to make sure you mark the driver so you set youre depth with the blade in the straight up and down position.
If you missed it you will get a way deeper cut. or diff from piston to piston.
or slowly rotate it backwards by hand with a dial indicater on top of the driver stem would be the best to find the highest point to set the collar from.
