Grizzly T10010 10" Wet Grinder Kit?

[MAB11]

Anyone out there have one? If so, how do you like it? It's a fraction of the price of the Tormek or the JET. Makes me think it's a "Get what you pay for" kind of deal. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I am not sure about the quality but it seems to be a duplicate of the one that I purchased from Harbor Freight. The stones wear really fast, mine did anyway. YMMV.

I have one, although mine is branded Scheppach Tiger 2500. It is made in China for Scheppach in Germany.

Although not up to the Tormek quality, it is about a third the price here in Oz.

I use the Tormek jigs with it, as well as a couple of Jet jigs. The Scheppach jigs didn't impress me.

Here is a link to what I did to mine, as well as my dry grinder.

Why do I have both?

The shaping of the tool is done on the dry grinder, further sharpening and re-sharpening is done on the wet grinder. The Tormek jigs can now be used on both grinders.

Good idea, i would like to make something like that cabinet for my dry grinder and S wet grinder. I have had the S for a more then a few years now and am pleased with it. Carl
