John,

I managed to get some hits on Giggle using "max forsberg woodworking". It
has a link to the OWWM group, you might start there.

Yeah, I know, nothing new here.

>and I've never heard of the MFR... Anyone??

I'm not sure of the Forsberg part but Max was once a maker
of things abrasive that were usually only found in pattern
shops (in other words, real nice).

I'd say it's worth an "out 'n back" to take a look see,
'specially if it stays at this low, low price. Actually, if
it's half of what it looks to be, we're probably talking
$600ish and you could/would still call it a gloat.

You still here? What are you waiting for? Git!
