This grinder is an excellent value, but you have to understand its limitations. The motor and mount are excellent. The shaft is precisely machined and well balanced. The sheet metal guards are good. A good Diamond dresser is included. What’s less good is the quality of the grinding wheels supplied. While better than the typical grey wheels supplied with cheap grinders, the samples supplied with my grinder and those I’ve seen on others show a wide variation in how well they’re drilled and balanced. One of the wheels supplied with my grinder was drilled at an angle, and was completely unusable. I was able to align and balance the other after a lot of work using shims.I replaced the bad wheel with a Spartan CBN (cubic boron nitride) wheel, something I strongly suggest for sharpening high speed steel lathe tools, and I plan to replace the other soon. I’d suggest you do that, or at a minimum use pink Norton wheels and machined steel inserts. I’ve also added a Oneway Wolverine sharpening jig. The cheapest CBN wheels will cost you almost as much as the grinder, but they last much longer than friable wheels, and require no dressing. A good sharpening jig will cost as much as the grinder, but will make sharpening much easier and do a better job than freehand grinding, and allow you to create profiles that are extremely difficult to do freehand.
