ACS Vesuvius Evo Leva owner experience
Looking at the left side, I see some small damage to the finish where a side impact from the panel would hit it. I couldn't have caused that, so I don't know what to think. I will, as you suggested, send all of these pictures to ACS (through Maria?) and see what they say. {image} Matt

Hopper fed grinder
Thanks all. WLL has Ceado e6p on sale. Does anyone have specific knowledge of this grinder versus the others mentioned? 64mm platform is tempting (also super jolly). Thanks

Taking the last photo first, that looks like a hexagonal (so it won't rotate) rivnut that was put into the steel with too much force on a misadjusted air tool. I have used the air tool to fit them before and you have to be careful with a different adjustment for thickness of metal and size of rivnut. The Evo

Shot inconsistencies with SSP Cast LS
I had the pleasure of fixing the aforementioned DF64 that was aligned at chirp, but not at all aligned elsewhere. The process to evaluate the adjustment collar was to remove the upper carrier and the bolt that holds the lower carrier. I then mounted a test indicator stud in place of the bolt (i have a few M8
