    Default Considering a used Supergrind 2000 -Need advice

    I have seen a used Tormek Supergrind 2000 for sale.

    I does not have the horizontal base mount. I've search the net but every photo I have found of a Supergrind 2000 has the horizontal base mount.

    Can anyone tell me anything about this model? Could I add the horizontal base?

    What's it worth?

    Risks of buying a used machine?

    Here is a photo of the machine in question:

    Hi,
    I purchased one just the same. Installed the base mount myself, and am
    very happy.
    paid $250. Have added more to it since.

    Thanks for the info...

    Did you add the base mount by ordering it as a spare part? Was it tricky to mount?


    Thanks!

    have same did same you can buy the mount as spare part with fitting instructions
    Some people are like slinkies - not really good for anything, but they
    bring a smile to your face when pushed down the stairs .

    Yes Kaharoa, you can buy the part from anyone that sells Tormek.
    When I mounted mine, I fitted the bar and then squared it up against the wheel. Next I super glued it in place to allow me to drill the holes without movement.
    Hope this helps.
