Not only that! I got in the already previously unopened original packaging a grinding machine, the already - albeit very small - had traces (Cable not wound factory typical protective sleeve on the shaft wet Schraubeindrücke on the enclosed knife holder). The leather wheel, however, was properly and also the grinding wheel again. The appearance was OK, so no scratches etc. On the other hand, a new Präparierstein was paid, purchase price about 25 minutes. Whether added as a consolation prize or forget to take out when the plane came back as returns from a customer? No matter, because I was in "grinding pressure", I took the grinder still in operation.
Another, is discovered, production-related defect: The Ring sleeves Perforated feed the standard holder 70 are made of plastic so mickrigem that they are apparently already broken with the coming presses. The hold only a few applications and I have the same fixed with 2K adhesive.
In wise idea I had ordered me to parallel the home and household package HTK-705 with grinding holders of Tormek in another Amazon supplier. In the confrontation, you watch but the qualitative difference, which also has to be said that the Tormekschleifvorrichtungen cost more than the whole Scheppach machine plus two grinding holders and polishing paste (and Dressierstein). Curiously enough, the prices of accessories from the otherwise high-priced equipment vendors Tormek, with a corresponding offer research, more favorable than that of all but Scheppach.Vor: The ordered Tormek grinding accessories also fit to the Scheppach NSM and also the identical woodstar WG8.
Overall, my experience cover so so with what was reported also from other buyers: The work results with the Scheppach are NSM satisfactory, so it is worth the price in the literal sense. But nothing more. For Scheppach NSM I would have given 3 stars, but because of the deception by the suppliers I was only two stars.
