Which grinder??????

[Jim Slovik]

My old Craftsman grinder died tonight so I find myself in the market for a new 8" grinder. Any opinions on what's out there and what's good? Are there any current deals or sales that you know of?
Thanks,
Jim

I just bought one from Woodcraft, 2 speed on special for $99.00

It is better to get this one:

It comes with 2 white AO wheels. It is usually on sale almost every other month for around $80. It is regarded as a good value.

The 2 speed model comes with 1 gray wheel which is not suitable for turning tools.

I have the one Rich posted and I wish the other wheel was AO. I will be replacing it so that I can use the Wolverine on both sides (2 setups).

Another vote for the one Gordon recommends!

Thanks everyone. It looks like I'll be going to my local Woodcraft store today.
