Anybody Had Experience With This Cheap Grinder?

My garage was robbed yesterday and they stole over $1000 of tools. I had collected these over years so I didn't buy them at once and I can't afford to replace them all at once with the quality I had. In fact, I'll never be able to afford to replace the drill press with the same quality. So, I'm going to have to make do with cheaper versions and upgrade to better ones over time. Probably the tool I use most is a bench grinder, so I've focused on it first. Has anybody had any experience with this grinder? http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=37822 Yes, I know, Harbor Freight, but it's the best price I can find on a grinder right now. -- Ken Sorry about that. I know how you feel since I have been there. My tools now reside in the house with me at least a many as I can fit, hehe. Please upgrade your security before making further investments in tools. I am too polite to say the things I think and feel about someone who would steal a man's tools. They are below garbage. I also purchased this large storage chest for outdoor storage of my gear. I can't tell you how it is locked because it is a secret but suffice to say is is well locked. It would also serve you in an indoor location perhaps bolted to the floor.

I have not used it myself. Check pawn shops and auctions for cheap prices as well. Best of luck. |

Yes, by all means check the local pawn shops, as many as you can get to and as many times as you can visit over the next few months - you might be able to find exactly the same make & quality tools you are now missing...... ;-) |
