Doug had said that he bought the grinder from Granite City Tool in Vermont.

The tool is called Felisetti. I probabaly spelled it wrong. I just bought one but haven't used it yet. Phil Hoppes has one too and he has done some great work with it in addition to Doug.

PS. Be sure to order the 4" flexable backing plate.

8) Yea, I'm back for a while. The grinder is a Felisetti, made in Italy for the marble industry and sold by Granite city tool. I think that Amy has posted the URL. It has proved to be a very good machine, much cheaper then the rest of the wet grinders on the N american market and with a variable speed to boot. Amy...have you tried yours out yet? Let us know what you think.
