Default Query: Any Experience With This ToolPost Grinder?

According to LP :
Considering this grinder:

http://www.littlemachineshop.com/pro...ProductID=2001

Looking for comment, pro or con.


It has a single speed, so only one size of wheel.

It appears to have no provisions for small mounted stones for
use in grinding inside surfaces -- only for outside.

I have no idea how well balanced it may be. If it is poorly
balanced, that will impact the finish.

And -- of course -- with *any* toolpost grinder, you need to
take precautions to protecty your lathe bed (and other sliding surfaces)
from the abrasive grit which is thrown by the machine.

Good Luck,
DoN.
