Closer pictures of Le'Lit PL53

Hey all,

First post over here, usually spend my time lurking on coffeegeek. I just picked up a Le'Lit PL53 stepless/doserless and figured I'd throw a few pictures up here. I could really only find the one stock picture anywhere online, and that kind of bothered me since I couldn't really size it up. In any event, here they are:

Size comparison with my trusty but totally inadequate Capresso Infinity:

View from the side showing the stepless knob. I already took off the thumbscrew of the grind chute.

My best attempt to show the 'portafilter guide' flanges. These things need to go. They don't really help stabilize the portafilter if you ask me (I have a bottomless, though) and they make it so that the PF is way too close to the grind chute. The grounds heap up and can't clear the chute if I grind right into my PF. Think I'm gonna try to find a way to bend this in or Dremel them off...

Same but with the flash:

A quick shot of the trusty conical burr set (same as the Ascaso imini, Nemox Lux, etc):

Hope that helps!
