One of the smoothest running machines you can purchase.
You cannot purchase a better bench top grinder than this one.
We had an auto body restoration shop and had 2 of these.
The red one was purchased in 1987 and runs amazingly well. That's 39 years old now.
I am keeping this one, the Gray one is Newer
