Review: and they always made superior tools. Well - When I was looking to buy a bench grinder, I noted the ratings of the various grinders on desertcart. Even though this model has a 3.9 star rating, I decided to buy it. I know the Delta name, and they always made superior tools. Well, I am not disappointed! This grinder is high quality, and operates with little vibration. It has good power for a 6 inch, and the variable speed is a very important feature in a bench grinder. I cannot understand why the ratings are not higher, since this is probably the best value for the money anywhere. I am very happy with it, and since it has a 5-year warranty (returns to Northern tool centers nationwide), I can depend on it to provide years of service.
Review: Throw away the directions. - Great product, my second one. I bought my first 25 years ago and it still runs. Looks great and is exactly as described. Negative only the directions just throw them away use your head and eyes and put it together.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the length of the arbors?**
A: The arbor is 2" long without the back washer on the motor side.  Also, the diameter is 5/8".

**Q: do you have to buy wheels separate or does it come with two**
A: It comes complete with the 2 wheels and ready to use after attaching the shield and supports to the body.  Easy project.  I am very pleased with the grinder.

**Q: Can I use this for polishing brass?**
A: I think yes. I use the fabric wheel for polishing the surface of carving chisels.

**Q: Can the guards be removed to allow for polishing larger items?**
A: I removed all my guards for soft cloth polishing and buffing.  However, if you use the grinder wheels made of stone, you should absolutely keep the guards on, including the spark arrestor thingie in front.  Sometimes, these stone wheels may shatter and flying rocks will hit you... unless those guards are in place.

I used my buffing wheels without guards with no problem. You cannot polish with guards on.  Wear goggles anytime you turn this thing on, and wear lung protection with dust mask if you grind stone or use those abrasive wheels - there is fine dust that damages lungs - fine stone and fine metal dust.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Throw away the directions.

Great product, my second one. I bought my first 25 years ago and it still runs. Looks great and is exactly as described. Negative only the directions just throw them away use your head and eyes and put it together.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, bad assembly instructions
*by J***S on November 22, 2020*

I bought this rather than a Dewalt for the variable speed feature. It replaces a new-out-of-the-box (but 15 years old) Skil 3395, which caught fire within 1 minute of being turned on. (Skil customer support suggested that it sucks to be me.) Assembly was a challenge. The instructions are brief, and illustrations like trying to read the mint mark on a well-worn coin. I went by the excellent photo of the product on the packaging. I've since sharpened several tools -- no fire, no smoke, didn't even get hot. I'm very happy with this tool and purchase.
