Aye, laddie, she's a beaut. But can she grind!

How's that handle - does it lock in the 'out' position for stability during the cranking?

Lucky man! Thanks for the pics. Is that a popper stopper (i.e. lid of sorts) to keep bean fragments from escaping while grinding?

Looks like this matches most of the Knock Hausgrind's advantages in terms of portability, while retaining the wonderful Lido 2 loading funnel and the new anti-static jar. I also love the all black look (as anyone who had seen my Hausgrind can attest)! Can't wait to hear more updates about this sweet new hand grinder.

I can't identify which grinder is better.the uniformity looks similar.
lido 3 is easy to turn,but takes more time.Lido 2 is more effective. the total power you take would be the same,I think.

the adjustment marks of two grinders is different.10 marks from zero in lido 3 equals to 1 turn in Lido 2.
