Customer Reviews
I'm very pleased with this item.
I have been a woodworker for several years and have always prided myself on keeping my hand tools sharp. At the same time, I have ruined more than one chisel or gouge sharpening it on a grinder. If I manage to keep from taking the temper out of the steel, I then have to hone it and then strop it on a leather belt. Time consuming to say the least. Recently I found myself drooling (figuratively) over the Tormek system but could not justify the money. Recently I purchased the Grizzly T10010 and I could not be happier. My chisels have never been so sharp, my wife's kitchen knives are wicked sharp, I just completed sharpening an old, old pair of utility scissors I used for carpet laying and now they cut like they're new. I did go ahead and spring for most of the Tormek accessories and found they fit the Griz like they were made for it. All in all I would heartily recommend the T10010 to anyone that is considering it. I'm one happy camper, or should I say "sharper woodworker".
Quite pleased
I've had this Grizzly T10010 for about a month and am pleased with how it works. Very impressed with how solid it is, and it trully sharpens blades and chisels consistently and very little variation. I use it for woodturning chisels, which i heard, would require frequent sharpening. But soon started sharpening all my wood chisels and kitchen knives to a level of sharp i had never before achieved. It really makes sharpening almost idiot-proof.
Had to buy a diamond t-truing tool for about $12 to true up the wheel, like others have said, and that makes quite a difference once you do. Leather strop wobbles, but not a big deal. Everything else is working nicely.
I haven't found it necessary to buy any secondary attachments yet, but i haven;t really sharpened anything but flat chisels and simple shapes yet.
All in all, i've found this affordable wet grinder to be perfect for my needs. And the folks at Grizzly are very helpful if you have any questions or need shipping/ordering information.
Great value - You'll be happy with this grinder
Well, like everyone else I found the grinder a little beat up from shipping. The Styrofoam was all busted up and the paint job was a little roughed up. But nothing was broken or bent. Yes, the grinding wheel does wobble and yes it's supposed to. I don't think anyone knows why but it does. Note that this grinder DOES ship with a square edge jig for holding your plane irons and chisels. Nowhere in the description does it say this. Not on Amazon and not on the Grizzly site. So I purchased the Tormek SE-76 square edge jig also - just to make sure i could use my new grinder when it came in. The SE-76 works on the Grizzly, but because of the way it's designed it kinda limits the side to side travel. I ended up going back to the cheaper stamped out jig that came with the unit. It works perfectly fine. When you look at the price difference between the Tormek T7 and this Grizzly T10010... No brainer guys. This grinder spins the wheel and the holder holds your iron to the stone. It works great for me. You should see the shavings I'm getting out of my planes.
