Question for the OP.

In the third picture from your second post, there are 2 1/2" holes. I believe those should be filled with felt cord to hold and distribute oil on the ways under the table. I...

I think the problem is obvious, this is simply not a surface grinder that people are willing to pay around $3000 for.

I'm not bashing the op's work or the value of his work. I have no reason to...

Same thing here, anything close to McMaster in terms of finding the item you are looking for and providing detailed information about it.
