I also got their DVD with it. I assembled it and tried it out. I really
like it and think it'll be a great asset to my shop. I never liked working
on my table saw with the blade guard off and with the Grriper I feel it is
safer than with the guard on and less worries about kickback. Some day I
would like to get another one to piggyback on long boards. Due to several
comments lately on this NG I thought I'd give my 2 cents worth since I was
the original poster asking for comments.

Welcome to the GRR-Ripper club. I sense that 2nd GRR-Ripper will come
sooner, rather than later

I agree that the Grriper is grrreat.

However dont kid yourself into thinking that you will avoid a
kickback--that can be minimized by using a splitter and not ripping
gnarly woods.

FYI, Woodcraft has the full kit on sale for $60 (reg. $71) until the end of
May.
