That is a great idea Henry. I wonder if the plastic will quiet it down as well.

You inspired me to try 1/8" rubber gasket material. I've seen it at Ace Hardware.

If we were able to carry the love and tolerance shown here into the world as a whole and get anyone to follow the example set, who knows what could be born from that?

Finally got the Super Grinder built. Found some thin wall plastic tubing that fit as bushing material perfectly. One thing for sure, the super-Grinder is a Super Grinder! It is a bit rough which is what I expected. There is a little belt slipping on some of the soft areas which a slight belt tightening should cure. It took the back off of a couple of small botryoidal pieces from Singleton in short order exposing some nice Bouquet underneath. It's a bit messy, with tiny pieces bouncing everywhere.
