Fine machine to be sure. Design, adjustments and mounting methods of his tool rests set these apart most of all.

Been too long since commercial machines had decent reference surfaces. Oh, I don't know, that too much to expect? Imagine, a dependable place on which to place an item? Call them to suggest or complain though....."calls are monitored to insure positive quality customer experience".
How about negative experience when I botch a boring bar or threading bit? When are the operators 'Standing by' then?

h7eh7he;
Your grinders should be industry models of companies wanting to break into the market. Sturdy, smooo-ooth running, and proper tool rests. As users, that's intuitive, yet beyond some companies. I sure cannot explain why, past accountants and clever marketing departments, and huge profits on import junk...
Before OSHA [which translates to "We sit behind desks, write directives to shield owners from ineptness and collect fines protecting YOU; and no we've never run that machine before, what's it called?", every shop had powerful grinders and even more powerful sanders, mostly Hammond and Porter-Cable. Possibly, some of those had 120" [304cm] belts over 12" [30mm] wheels. You could burn a big radius or polish just by varying the pressure. Those long belts were rather expensive, but stayed cool and lasted a long time.
Right after you posted earlier machines, and not finding any of the good old commercial models, I determined to follow your lead and build ground up. I have seen recently, long shaft buffers that don't have long end bells to support belt tension. Seeing your work, makes that less intimidating to fabricate.
