Review on 🧱 Unleash Precision with QuickT GDS701K Universal Surface Grinding by Jeremy Choi

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Doesn't fit my Harbor Freight Chopper and won't accept any of my vacuum components

The build quality of the product is good which is disappointing as quality doesn't matter if it doesn't fit. I have an HF coffee grinder with a blue handle and paddle switch. The package includes a ring that fits the grinder, but there are 2 protrusions on the grinder that prevent the shield from landing. There is a notch in the shield for this, but when you turn it the turnbuckle tightening on the grinder sleeve interferes with the grinder handle. I have a Craftsman wall mounted vacuum, an ash vacuum, a Rockler universal hose set and guess what? None of them fit this thing. Take a moment and think how much better the world would be with standard diameter shop vacuums... Okay, back to reality. The amount of research and development that goes into finding a diameter that doesn't fit anywhere must be amazing. I might do this by sawing off the lugs or making a big notch in the fender. I might as well lay down my pride and tape off the vacuum hose, but I was getting too impatient to bother with this crap. I'm so tired of redesigning products to actually do their job. So annoying... Okay the chatter is over, I sent it back and was relieved that there were no more projects on my to-do list.

Pros
  • Choppers
Cons
