WEN Cast Iron Bench Grinder Stand Available
As all woodworkers know, a bench grinder on a normal work surface often times jostles and skews the other items in a work area due to heavy vibrations created by the grinder. The WEN Bench Grinder Pedestal Stand (sold separately) resolves this issue by providing an independent surface to attach your grinder. The heavy cast iron and steel design limits vibration while providing a sturdy 31.5-inch pedestal for your grinder to rest on. The stand includes a water pot for quenching workpieces, a reliable three-legged design with bolt holes for fastening your stand to the floor and a 9.9-by-12.4-inch cast-iron top with slots and holes for securely mounting your bench grinder.

With the above in mind, I found this bench grinder to be more than adequate. It is very quiet, does not vibrate and has sufficient power to perform the simple tasks I ask of it. It does not bind or slow down when moderate pressure is placed on a buffing wheel and the built-in light is very useful. The rubber feet hold it in place securely and I did not feel any need to attempt to secure it to a work top.
In order to provide good access to the buffing wheel, I removed the shroud on one side and mounted the buffing wheel "bare". When mounted in this manner, I had more than adequate access to the buffing wheel, even with pieces over 2 feet long.
I looked at a number of units before ordering this one and I'm very pleased with my purchase.
Bolted to a WEN 4288 Cast Iron Bench Grinder Pedestal Stand with Water Pot (5 star stand). The grinder has two centered bolts on opposite sides, and rubber cushion feet. When bolting down i only snugged it slightly to help prevent vibration.
Lamp does not include bulb, I installed a 40w LED bulb. Lamp power is independent from grinder power, this is a nice feature. Assembly is simple and straight forward.
First use: very slow to spin up to speed, this is due to its lower amp rating. Once up to speed I used the coarse wheel to re-edge an older screw driver. The spark arresting guards work ok, but still lots of sparks got by. Typical in my opinion. Did not notice any bogging or speed issues, but that was a very light job. Moderate to high vibration was noticeable, causing the lamp to shake and change position. The Wen stand was rock solid during the grinding.
Second use: 20" mower blade sharpening. I had to move the Plexiglas shields up and out of the way to allow moving the blade around. Using the coarse wheel, there was slight bogging/slowing of the wheel, but seemed to have spun back up in 2-3 seconds or so. Once I used moderate force, I found the little $45 grinder struggling. Switched to the fine grit wheel, and experienced the same speed fluctuation.
Overall thoughts.... For the price its a solid purchase for the light light duty home garage. I purchased a wire wheel for rust/paint removal, I will update this with my experience. I own a few WEN devices, and so far they are better than HF tools, but not professional grade. Not that I expected profession grade at a bargain price I would highly recommend this to the basic weekend garage warrior doing light work on metal items. i am content with my purchase, and I give it a solid 4 stars. I took a star away because of the vibration and the loose lamp goose-neck. This is the better of the bargain priced grinders out there!
