    For Sale SOLD: QUORN Precision Tool Grinder - $1,250

    Great condition working QUORN precision tool grinder. Comes as pictured with collets, several grinding wheels, etc. This unit is permanently leveled by being uniquely mounted on a very sturdy steel channel. Prefer local pick-up as it's very heavy to ship.

    Carbide inserts

    Unless your job calls for carbide tooling, due to speed of completion, hardness, etc., why not just use good old tool steel shaped according to basic principles? Tool steel cuts great and leaves a wonderful finish on most materials. Just my 2 cents worth. Best, Mike DiGirolamo...

    Have you ever seen one of these?

    Prior to initially posting this thread, I also could not find anything. However, after some responses, I have discovered they are available in the USA. Check this site, Gillette Portable 3-Phase Generator - GPE-75EH-3-3 | Absolute Generators Mike

    Have you ever seen one of these?

    My interest in a portable three phase generator is for testing and a temporary supply of power for newly acquired machines. Then I set them up with VFD's. I use a VFD to power my Hardinge lathe and another one to power my Rockwell horizontal mill. The portability is helpful when going to a...

    Have you ever seen one of these?

    Has anyone seen a small THREE PHASE portable power generator? I remember waaaay back, while in the USAF, seeing those HUGE generators on wheels, but I'm talking about a smaller one, 120V, 240V and/or 480V, 3PH, 60 Hz, that could be used to power up small 3 phase machines?
