Review on Shop Fox W1840 Variable-Speed Grinder With Work Light, 8 by Curtis Domus

It's just OK. Now be forewarned, in my shop I have four Baldor 8" grinders/buffers, a Makita wet grinder, an old Craftsman bench grinder, and a 10" 5hp three phase pedestial grinder in the barn. Each is set up for a specific purpose. I'm very fussy about tool work and I bought the Shopfox to replace the old (45 years) Craftsman grinder. I thought I'd put a CBN wheel and cup on the Shop Fox for light sharpening at low speeds. I should have bought the Jet variable speed. The shop fox motor overheated after sharpening ten bits (very, very light grinding at low speed). The wheels have a slight wobble and part of the reason is the arbor shoulder that you tighten the wheels against is incredibly small. I'm exaggerating if I say you have a 1/16" of shoulder. The flanges are stamped metal. I believe that the stamped flanges have enough slop that they don't snug up perpendicular to the arbor flange, which again is thin and we get wobble. I'm thinking I'll give the grinder to my son who wouldn't know the difference. Actually I'll machine the flanges flat and keep the grinder for drill bits but that's about all it's good for.
