Nice Little Machine...
By Matt (Stormy) on Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2011
Just tried my grinder out for the 1st time, and I must say, it does what it's supposed to do, without any hesitation. I'm going to get years and years of work out of this machine, I can already see that, and you cannot beat that it comes with a 5 year warranty. I bought the grinder that a marketplace seller had up here for less than the other storefronts, but it is still in new condition (even though it was made in 2001, lol), and it still does the job. Thanks to Tricia Devine for selling it for a reasonable price. I also like the fact that it is easy to maintain & clean, and I can see getting another bit for doing fine corners and maybe even some drilling. Also, the unit is well designed as the water and grit residue from grinding never comes in contact with any moving parts. The only design change I can see making would be putting the drain hole right in the corner. It is located under the work area shelf, about 3/4" at a 45 degree angle inside from the upper left corner, facing the machine. Cleaning is still easy, but having this hole in the actual corner, you'd be able to lift the machine slightly and the water and mess would go in the hole without pooling up at all. Something for the Gryphon people to think about, if they haven't already done so on another model machine. Otherwise, an excellent purchase, and investment.

Found a better option. This is good for beginners
By Marty Handford on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2025
I found a much better solution with a different brand and did not use this- opened it, looked at it, realized there was a better option-simply returned it. The other solution had interchangeable bits included and the ergonomics seemed better. This looked like a goid value- the other option was more expensive. This was one of those situations where paying more would make the project go better and easier so I went for it. Size was compact. Looked well built. Good name brand. Function unknown since I did not use it
