How to use SixStringers' Saddle Nut Sander...
-
Measure string action at the 12th fret.
-
Subtract the desired action height from the measure, this is gives you the overage.
-
Multiply the overage by 2.2, this is how much material needs to be taken off the bottom of the saddle.
-
Blue painter's tape is .0005" and office scotch tape is .0015"... how many layers of each equals the overage number?

Other guys' Saddle & Nut Sanders
Use bolts and nuts for axles, bolts are poor precision eccentric out of round axles that make the stance and roll of the tool uneven resulting in an uneven saddle and nut.
No Rubber grip strips to ensure secure positioning and clamping of the saddle or nut, allowing them to shift position while sanding resulting in having to start over with a new saddle or nut.
Methods of use are precarious and inaccurate measuring claiming that turning the top screws achieves desired result when in fact the tops of saddles and nuts are not flat hence making it literally impossible to achieve setting the depth of cut by counting screw turns as they claim.
Customers complain that the Clamp does not open wide enough for all nut widths.
Available in one size: Do not address need for 108mm to work for those rare saddles longer than 84mm.
Use springs and other overly complicated unnecessary mechanisms for clamping.
Most are cheap poor quality knock-offs made in China that on Amazon are listed as frequently returned.
