They look to be the same unit but $45.00 difference in price.
Both appear to be Wolverine systems with accessories.
Any experience with this setup would be appreciated. It would be used with a Rikon 8" slow speed grinder.
Thanks, Bill
Note neither of these are Wolverine. They are both the same copy of Wolverine by Savannah. I bought this set for the angle guides and the extra tool support (not sure what it's called, top row, middle). The arms and extras are compatible with my other Wolverine set up.
Surprised at the price difference because Ron Brown sells several items from Peachtree (who is the Amazon seller). If you are so inclined to support small businesses and fellow turners, I would contact Ron Brown and ask for a price match.

I contacted Ron Brown and within 24 hours received a phone call from him. I explained the price difference and he updated his website within $5.00 of the Amazon price.
Impressive customer service. He also answered questions from this novice woodturner.
I ordered the pro grind sharpening system from his website.

Me personally I would never buy anything from him again. He lied to me and then blamed it on he was to busy to do what he told me. Then he stole a design by ruth niles and sells it saying it is his design.
