Grizzlies

Grizzly G9701 Corner Chisel
$5.95
I used this on a recent project routing out several doors with square hinges. Its fine for once in a while use but if you have intentions of heavy usage I would go with one of the better made but more expensive options. Seems that the blade gets dull easily as the more I used it the more times I'd have to whack this with the hammer.

Grizzly H3405 Spur Center - 4 Spurs - MT1
$4.95
Ok for light work and hobbies. Not the high quality production center you see listed at $45 or more. This is a cheap imitation made in CHINA. The price is cheap and the finish is ok. Checked the fit to my Craftsman lathe and the fit is perfect. Haven't used it yet because I got it as a spare. Looks to be tempered or heat treated.

Grizzly T10010 10" Wet Grinder Kit
$189.95
I decided that a slow-speed wet grinder was the thing for me, but the prices for the Tormek unit are outrageous. This Griz is a clone of the Schepper (spelling?) unit and it's compatible with most Tormek adapters.

Nice a quiet. Small footprint. Good switch placement. It's a grinder... what more can you say?

I own a few Grizzly tools, but I don't consider myself a devotee. What I like about Grizzly is that you get a bit MORE than you pay for, and you can buy from them without fear because their customer service is truly outstanding.

If this unit was $75 more, it would be worth it. At this price, it's more than worth it.

Grizzly Man
$14.98
Timothy Treadwell spent 13 years among grizzly bears in Alaska with his video camera before he was killed by one of them. A recovering alcoholic who never fit in human society, he found meaning living with the bears, whom he loved for the romantic characteristics that he projected upon them. He saw the bears as beautiful and authentic and believed that he had a genuine connection with them.

How ironic and interesting that the filmmaker who presents and shapes his footage is Werner Herzog. Treadwell captures Herzog's sympathy because his crazy obsession to confront nature is so similar to that of many Herzog protagonists in other films. Yet, where Treadwell saw beauty, Herzog sees only cruelty and chaos. Nevertheless, he seems to respect Treadwell's compulsion and presents his story with great sympathy. He also admires Treadwell as a filmmaker, and we are treated to many extraordinary images. After listening to the tape that recorded the deaths of Treadwell and his girlfriend Amie Huguenard, he tells the woman who owns the tape, a close friend of Treadwell's, that she must destroy it and never listen to it. This is far more affecting and dramatic than any voyeuristic thrill the viewer might get from actually hearing the horrible sounds. This is an extraordinary and unusual nature documentary.
