I was looking at that surface grinder at one time, but HF discontinued it 4 years or so ago. I would up buying a used Boyar Schultz and going through it. A surface grinder is one of those tools that you will find more uses for than you think when you buy it. Need a washer a specific thickness? Face some round stock in the lathe, turn it, drill it, part is off too thick and grind it down to size. It mostly just speeds up doing things that I could do other ways, but with more difficulty. Of course, if you are working on hardened metals, which I usually don't, then it's a lot more of a necessity.
