    I haven't actually got it yet, so can't comment on it's quality. I won't be buying it for a couple more weeks.

    Not forgotten, I've just been very busy.

    Here is my overview of the Vicmarc Grinding System:

    I particularly like the new 1/2 speed grinder.

    As as been mentioned the jig and platform are "new mouse traps" but they are well made and provide us with an Australian-made option.

    Interesting Brendan, certainly gives you a good idea on what it is and how it works.

    One thing I did pick up though was the way the triangular guide had to be adjusted for each side of a skew. I wondered why you didn't just flip it, but then answered my own question, the locking nut is not centrally located. Makes me wonder why the locking nut was positioned off-centre, perhaps because the pin locations would otherwise be an issue?
