Does anyone, please, have experience of these small imported
"Universal Tool & Cutter Grinders" ?
Warco, Chronos and RDG are selling them now and RDG have an offer
which is substantially less than the others for what you "appear" to
get.

(Scroll about 40% down)
Usage would be light & occasional and there's not enough room for a
used Clarkson in the workshop.

Thanks for that link, I'm a bit embarrassed I didn't check on there.
"Bottom line" seems to be avoid them.

Twas I what wrote as 'Aviemoron'. I should add that YahooGroups has a
trio as Quorn_owners which is not confined to those who have more
balls than most.
Whilst I have a Quorn, I also have a Clarkson minus pedestal to
squeeze in to my small workshop- and really the Quorn is redundant.
Sometime back I wrote and reflected that a Clarkson can be up and
running for less than the price of the imported contraption and the
cost of the castings of such as the Quorn, Kennet and Stent. It is a
subject which is really too big to write a 3 line answer!

Yep ~ broadly agree as I've refurbished and installed a Clarkson Mk 1
at our model engineering society w/shop. Distance & general
buggeration in getting to the Clarkson had got me thinking about
alternative in my w/shop for spirals on cutters upto 3/4".
I'll keep watching for a Quorn.
