It only accepts up to 1/2" drills in the set of bushings that came with the machine, and a 9/16" in the master collet. It does do a very repeatable, high-quality grind though.Considering that 90% of my drilling needs are 1/2" and below, I would love to have a heavy duty grinder like that. Larger drills are much easier to grind by hand than the small ones anyway.
The PixMan gets ALL the cool toys....
I would hate to see what that would sell for (new) these days though! :s
