Mini Bench Grinder and Polisher

On opening the box I was impressed at the compact size of this mini-grinder, but once I got it all set up and switched on, I have to say that both the stability and power impressed me even more! Having bought this on sale and wanting something with a bit more 'oomph' than my Dremel (which the flexi shaft certainly provides), i can say this has ticked all the boxes. I don't really need a full size grinder and the versatility of this machine, with options to grind edge tools, buff small wooden or metal items (with either the included buffing wheels or with the flexi-shaft, using a buffing attachment secured in the chuck), is a fantastic addition to my shop. Highly recommended if you're wanting something that does all these things, but with a smaller footprint on your bench.

This machine is so quiet. It’s easy to use and is put together exceptionally well. The price was so low, I thought it would be rubbish but it’s not. The only difficulty I have is attaching the auxiliary flexible rotary shaft, but that’s probably due to my fingers. Great machine and I love it.

Everything arrived well packed. The machine is nicely made and quiet in operation. I could not find any manual of instructions and left a request for support to deal with the issue. The responded by return and I received my PDF copy. As I was cutting up the box and the packing, I discovered the manual which had slipped between the box and the packing material. I am not a fan of cross head screws, especially where they are quite a shallow cross. I find they cam out very easily. I exchanged all of the screws for stainless Allen key cap heads. I feel this is an improvement and I am very happy with the performance of this machine.

I bought this Mini Bench Grinder and Polisher for re-grinding and tidying old wood carving chisels. The steel on old tools with good names is lovely and holds an edge well, but when you buy them second hand they sometimes have nicks along the cutting edge. Grinding these off on a whetstone takes a very long time, but if you are going to use a mechanical grinder you have to be very careful not to overheat the tool and destroy the temper. This little beauty has a lightness of touch, with the variable speed, and the added advantage of the polishing wheels to get the perfect finish. Can't recommend it highly enough. Brilliant.

This is a great grinder polisher. The grinder is excellent for sharpening most of my woodturning tools. With the additional spindles and polishing wheels it is ideal for polishing both small and larger pieces of work.An ideal piece of kit for the workshop.
