Thanks for all your replies guys.

Mark: No cigar mate! I'm after part no H7583

SteveR: Very helpful- Thanks both BB and H-o-T have something similar and
I've mailed them for shipping quotes.

Michael: I am following your suggestion up on a woodworking forum.

Do we have any US readers on this NG?

Peter N: The UK equivalent is nearly 4x the US price before shipping.

Best regards

Bob, I seem to remember that there have been quite a few UK people
wanting equipment from Grizzly, several of them after the grinder that
Mark mentioned.

Maybe if they can can put their hands up on here you could get
together and organise a group buy that would meet the minimum order
value for Grizzly to ship?
I have a feeling that some of them may have been on the HSM forum or
Yahoo groups, so perhaps it may be worth sticking a post on those.

I would have thought that as mentioned previously, Grizzly just import
from the same Chineses OEM manufacturers as everyone else in the
world. Also, you will be getting 110v kit if you import from the US,
so thats another consideration. Seems a lot of bother & cost! Perhaps
a direct approach to someone like Axminster might be worthwhile,
especially if you could 'guarantee' a reasonable number of purchasers?
