Grizzly G7297 12 Inch Disc Sander

Unboxing, assembly, use and review of the Grizzly G7297 disc sander.
The price is surely right on this -- $300 including a delivery fee. The assembly was fast and easy with no problems. The quality deserves more discussion. Bottom line: Smooth quiet motor. So that’s good. The table is flat and easy to square to the disc. Good again. But the bevel mechanism is so-so, and the miter gauge is wobbly and flimsy. Not so good. So if you want to do a lot of sanding with bevels and miters, you might want to keep looking. For what I do, the quality is good enough.
