Interesting! Care to give a ballpark figure for the 14 inch slab and new 10"? Hi Deedolce, I don't have pricing yet but we're going to try to bring them in lower or around than to what you have to pay for other machines of that size. Of course these machines will be considerably more rugged and durable - for cutting agate and other nice material We really hope that these machines will help new people come into the hobby and have a great first experience. We've seen too many people get interested, buy equipment and have problems and quit thinking they just can't do lapidary. We aim to change that. Sherman

industrial cleaning/recirculation units I have seen used centrifugal force - could you tell what this one was based on? They didn't say, or if they did I don't recall. Garry

At the 2011 Quartzsite show, they also had a bull wheel setup on a double arbor. It looked like it would stand up to some pretty good use. They were also trying to get a slab saw oil recirc/auto cleaning unit patented and ready for sale. I put my name down to get the info on these when they come out. I never heard anything and it's been over 8 months. Garry Hi Garry, The oil cleaning system is right around the corner... its taken longer than we'd like but as the little guys, doing new products isn't all that easy. That being said, we're going into production in 3 weeks and should have units towards the latter part of the year. Stay tuned and I'll be sure to update you (I have your contact info from Quartzsite) as soon as we have them.

One of our customers suggested it and it's become our favorite for grinding and polishing in the shop. I'll post a YouTube video of it hopefully early next week. www.hplapidary.com/products/627-12-inch-high-speed-dual-bull-wheel-polisher.aspxWe lowered the price of the standard bull wheel to $1,350 and offer it with either a flat or doamed leather disc.
