I was thinking of putting a super-grinder together with 10 7" tile blades. It seems like a Poly Arbor would work pretty well for this application....what do people think?

Ok, back on topic..... Here are 2 pics of the arbor, plus here's what he said in his email "The pics below are of the arbor.Also I can include the shrouds .I will do $350 for the whole lot and will throw in some extra parts like flanges and splash guards so he can have extras." Is this what you're looking for Don? If yes, email me and I'll give you his email so the two of you can deal direct. Thanks! and

I use the old Lortone tin hoods/pans. They work fine and I think I found mine all used. My old club had a 10" Poly they set up with 10" tile blades for a super grinder for sphere preforms. Worked great but they had to keep it outside due to the noise when grinding. I stopped in to visit after three years and same original tile blades were still on and still looked like new.

I agree with Jake that the Poly Arbors were probably the best Lapidary arbors ever made. The original bearings in those were smooooth running! And the housings and shields were solid and sturdy too. Larry C.
