Hello Folks,

A friend bought the two speed Woodcraft 8" bench grinder and I bought a Ryobi from HomeDepot. We then bought 80 and 120 grit A/O CGW Camel brand blue wheels for turning tools. Both grinders wobble with original wheels and with the new wheels. It seems the CGW wheels wobble more due to the plastic bushings being loose. To give you an idea, the grinder sounds like an aircraft and would require hearing protection when it spins @3600 RPM.

The wheels also seem to be off center due to the loose bushings. Are there wheels that have 5/8" arbor without bushings? We have not dressed the wheels yet because doing so would void any warranty or prospect of returning them.

Thank you in advance for your feedback,

Sal.
