do your files have a coarse grit on 1 side and fine on other? mine look the same in all 3 sizes and both sides

I feel as though the crystal glass files do have a coarser grit on one side than they do on the other.

It is the same grit on both sides and all sizes unfortunately. It works well for nails, however I was going to use the large one to file the dry skin on my feet and it just does not have enough grit. So sad!

The medium one 5.5" has coarser grit on one side, the other side is smoother.

The largest file has courser grit. The other 2 seem to be the same. Since they are etched glass, they are the same on both sides. I find I don't need a courser side very often.

I had this issue as well. I emailed customer service at Krups and they said "The settings are fine to coarse, left to right." I decided to see for myself and ground coffee at each of the extremes. Frankly they don't look that different, maybe the right-most setting seems more coarse, but it's not obvious. I'm wondering if my machine isn't working correctly.

You might have it upside down. I usually print two copies to test if it's in the copier drawer correctly before I do a big batch. Hope this helps

All the same grit. But, for this product, grit size doesn't matter: it's a very fine, finishing grit that also files as fast as a coarse grit.

To answer your question, I tried the "coarse" setting (since I never use it). Most of the pieces were coarse but some were more like "medium." Looks like the grind is not even on the "coarse" setting.

I just got my 500gb silver hard drive in today (2/26/10) and I have the same one with less dots as well! I don't really like how this one looks...

I just got mine and I'm wondering if I should return, my drive shaft appears slightly bent and when I grind with nothing inside it scrapes ceramic on ceramic at one section of the rotation. :(

Do you have any other cartridges handy that you can try out to see if you get different results? If not, try taking it out and seeing if you can't find anything visually unusual with one side of the cartridge versus the other, and see if simply re-seating it helps.

I had the same experience. The hook and pile backing pad started to fail after the third sanding disk change. Never had this problem with other hood and pile based ROS sanders.

The file I received is double-sided; and, I can use both sides of it. Hope this answer helps!

Check the finish on the sheeve for any burrs. File them off and then emory cloth it smooth. Otherwise it has been great. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Yed mine is like that too. Speed seems to depend a lot as to what find of surface they're on. Hope this helps

I've had my files for a few months and have only used the orange file. I compared it with the unused files and they are all about the same as far as the surface goes. It's not like they have a rough surface even when they are brand new. The orange file still does a good job for me, and I use it 1-2 times weekly.

Screw driver tip on file blade. If it doesn't have SD, the file will be blade shaped with no flat head screw driver tip.

No problem with mine. The sanding screen is coarse though. I found the sander seems to work best with light pressure in random directions. The sander cut down about 99.9% the sanding dust. I do get a scratch once in a while. Finish sand with paper to achieve a smoother finish.

It feels coarse and grainy, and is very very dusty. I suppose the dust is powdery but the overall texture of mine was coarse and grainy.

LadyR,Try several DVD's. It may be that the discs you're playing are the problem. It seems to me that if there's not enough info on the disc, when it upgrades the picture it fills in the blanks with "noise", which makes the pic look grainy. Just a hunch, but most of my discs look great with no adjustment now.
