You have a grizly! Im evious of you guys that have the high end jets, grizlys, etc. Mines a 12 inch high end crftsman craigs list special i purchased for $100. But im happy with it. My other craigs list specials are a $25 belt and disk sander. A $35.00 grizly spindle sander and a $25 craftsman router and table. I have yet to find a use for the router in this passion of ours. A $25 6" grinder I found in a pawn shop.
