Ed, any news on that KMG?
Ed, I may be getting a grinder real soon. I am really curious to hear how the KMG is working for you. I have it narrowed down, sort of, to the Hard Core and the KMG. A few people have said less than complimentary things about the Bader--any other opinions out there would be appreciated too. Thanks, John |

Talked with Rob (Frink) today. My grinder will be shipping on Friday, and should be here by mid next week. I'm looking forward to this one! Rob was such a pleasure to work with, and was so willing to accomodate me with what I wanted.....I can't say enough about him! Plus! He's going to let me test out the new "Rotary Platen" which I think is going to be a great attachment for his machine! Be certain that after a few days with the machine I will give a complete write up on it. |

Yea, it has been two weeks.........but I've gotten next to nothing done in the shop over that time. My plan is to give the grinder about a month, and then write an article for my web site about the KMG. My initial opinion is..................I LOVE IT! There were a few modifications that I did right off the bat, and I will explain those, and why I did them, in the article. I've got the next couple of days off work, and my plan is to give the grinder a good workout, and see if anything pops up. I received the proto-type "Rotarty Platen" from Rob last week, and I am certainly going to have one! The platen is limited to mainly convex grinding, but it does it soooo well! More to follow...... |
