Hi folks I'm looking for some recommendations ... I'm planning on turning some pepper and salt mills/grinders but want to make sure I put top quality mechanism in them. Any suggestions on manufacturer and suppliers? Thanks again in advance. Regards, Irwin

have no experience with these mechanisms, but I have little doubt thatthey're good ones. Lee Valley doesn't use words like "high quality"lightly.
Go to Woodchuckers.com. Sub. of CraftSupplies U.K. They are located in Toronto. Top of the line. Joaz

although they did advertise a nice record vise, saying they got a load of them cheaper, but then I found the same one, but with 1inch more opening, and could hold a lot more weight(next model up) for 1/2 the price at house of tools.
