A big yes Andy. I think he's had it long enough to be able make a decision on weather he wants to purchase it or not.

That would have been fine but I did finally hear from him and he said that he shipped it back to me yesterday.

For the record he said he liked the tool but had some unexpected repairs that hit him hard financially.

Would you like to try it? I can send it to you when it gets here.

Thanks

Well I got nothing to lose by trying it. If you don't mind sending it . Do you need my address again? I can pm it to you if you need it. You will get good videos from me.

It is a step in the right direction, but I don;t think it would be the answer for stone unless you needed it to aggressively remove a lip only.

This tool has really grown into quite the piece of equipment. You have done an excellent job listening to feedback and incorporating changes to improve the product....something many companies have failed to accomplish.

Mil,
Here's another variation with the weight directly over the head.

Just wondering what you think.

Initial feedback from the stone guys is good.

Thanks

Bingo, looks like a winner. Should place the weight balanced over the head.

I will also come and say that I am impressed by the develpment on this tool. At first, I just could not wrap my mind over what looked like just a grinder on a stick...not meaning any offense here, it was just my initial reaction visually to it. Now, when I see them, I am not thrown off by the grinder head at all, don't even notice it really. The tool flows well, is logical, looks well crafted, sturdy...simply a winner in a world that is not known for many.

What are they selling for these days? Slap a price sheet on here one of these days and let's see how many lukers will bite.
