So I am looking into getting an entry level belt grinder, the one I am looking at is a palmgren belt grinder sold by tractor supply company, it is in my price range as well as being able to pick it up at a store front. I like the fact that it is a 2x42 belt grinder. There are very few reviews on the web site(only one) has anyone used this grinder before, what are your thoughts on it?

I have a Craftsman version of this grinder and have made a few knives with it. I added ceramic tile to the platen which helped it out. It's a nice little grinder but if the money is there you will be happier with a grinder that is variable speed. That being said I am still on my Craftsman 2x42 simply because I can't afford a variable speed 2x72.
