vince57 4 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 QFT. Impressive. How slick is the (granite) against the (SS)?used the granite because it was only £12.99 at the local supermarket, its nice and flat, hardwearing and doesnt corrode, used one before on the mk1 and its held up well over 2 years, its nice and smooth with a couple of strips of hockey tape under the boot holder, tried felt but found it too squashy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vince57 4 Report post Posted September 28, 2012 put some cover plates on it, looks a lot smarter and runs much smoother than the mk1 probably due to buying a better quality grinder to start with 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
