While I agree with my distinguised collegues, Mark and Grepper, about the importance of new ideas, I do not believe the contribution of the pioneer Varients is small potatoes. I do not include myself in this group. I just followed the trail they blazed. There may be more, however, I think of the pioneers as Rupert, Don, Henry and Max. Max' scissors video was what first informed me about the benefits of the variable speed motor for a belt grinder. As an old Tormeker, I realized the value of being able to slow the motor significantly. All of the pioneers have very generously advised and assisted me.
The Varients have shown how to make a useful tool more controllable. They have thus brought the benefits of using the belt grinder to the many more users, like me, whose skills are still developing.
