    Help, please: HEEL DRAG PLEASEEEEE HELP

    Here’s my reply to your Facebook post in case you didn’t see it. ———————— Heel drag is usually the result of 10% graver geometry and 90% (lack of) graver control. You have some really good, clean lines, and a few with heel drag. You will notice that on gentle curves there's less drag, and on...

    Help with gravermax

    That's a relief. At least now you know it can be fixed. Not much can be done with the fakes. I'm assuming you've called them by now. Talk to Greg @ GRS and he'll get you squared away. Or call their toll free number and ask to speak to Rex Pedersen. He's also a GRS technical guru who can assist...

    Grs complicated

    Disclaimer: I'm a 100% GRS guy and I'm biased. GRS has adjustments such as strokes per minute. The Lindsay handpiece strokes per minute increase as the tool accelerates. In GRS systems the strokes per minute never change until you adjust them to your needs. The Lindsay is small, portable, and...

    RinGenie turntable from GRS

    I think you're confusing companies. GRS doesn't make Ring Genie. Their turntable is the Satellite, and it's as good as turntables get IMO. I have three of them.
