Review on Garage Rotary Holder Mandrel with Enhanced Polishing Capabilities by Mark Jefferson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Even better than expected! And great price, just buy it.

I rarely give 5 stars to anything because honestly if it's not handmade then it should be at least as perfect as possible and exactly how you expect it to be. That's both. My workbench has some burr holders, tool racks, etc. This is my favorite so far. I was afraid the plastic would bother me as I can't stand the horrible sound of some plastics and metals being accidentally touched/scratched or even touched when you even insert a burr or rotating mandrel into a groove so I usually stick with wood. But this one is fabulous. In fact, more than I expected, I was very excited that even my wider pivot ridges and mandrels fit in the holes and they are decently spaced (could have used more spacing, but there could still be really extra options 😉). Also, the hole depth is way better than some others where you don't have to worry about a gust of wind blowing all your precious little tools right out of the holder. No, they fit quite well and are easily accessible due to their height. I'm not sure what people have said about the rotation problem, but personally I don't understand why you rotate it so much that you even care if it gets a little stiff at times? But it's not mine. And if so I suppose just add some oil to the ball ridges below? Speaking of rotating base. I love it so much that I was lucky enough not to find it among my other similar organizers/holders for two reasons: 1. The square shape of the base is great. The round ones will only cause you to lean and eventually even tip over if you squeeze them hard enough and aren't careful when rotating, adding or removing items, etc. (And it's a good wide size to keep things on the same level and produces good and even rotation and strength. Sorry I think it'll be 2. So 3 pluses total lol) 2. (Err 3 ) is that a nice big square rotating base also has pretty good thick and non-slip bumpers / feet on all 4 corners keep it up. Perfect hold even when turning. My favorite/biggest thrill was how much larger the center hole was than I thought was at least a quick check of my rulers. He can endure a lot! Yes. I even mean pliers, scissors (just protect the tips of the scissors, of course 😀), my sharps, a basic mini-measuring device, heck, I even have my bezel pushers/engravers and hand/ring clips. And even better, it was basically even cheaper than my regular online wholesaler/supplier who is trying to change something that I'm pretty sure is exactly the same. So basically I love this Souxj
