Too small really, best suited for model engineering type work when you are using tiny tools

Agree with the above. It's a very small unit. 75mm wheels on the main grinder.

i purchased a bench grinder a couple of years ago, and it was well out of balance, replaced and 2nd one was as bad, so got a refund, you may want to see if they will run it up/down in store , my store would not

Above are my opinions Below is my signature.
Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.
If gloom had a voice, it would be me.
