Tormek SuperGrind 1205 size?

[BennyJ]

Hello Tormek people!

I have the possibility to buy a Tormek SuperGrind 1205, but i am unsure if it is a 250mm or a 200mm machine.
The seller doesn't know 

Can any of you help me out by telling me which size it is?

I have tried google, but i cant really seem to find the model at all.

Thanks.

Hi, Benny.

Your most reliable source of information would be to email Tormek support (support@tormek.se). Include the photo in your email. I have often consulted support; their knowledge of earlier Tormek products is unsurpassed. (It is also free of charge.)

Please post their reply. It will help our group knowledge.

A couple of pages I found seemed to indicate the replacement stone is 200mm.  For example...

https://www.toolnation.nl/tormek-sg200-slijpsteen-200-mm.html

...shows it's the replacement stone for the 1205.

(But I'd see what Tormek says, to be sure).

Hi all!

Here is the answer from Tormek support :
"Hi Benny.

It is a 200 mm machine. It is a predecessor to the T-3/T-4.



Best regards,

Mats Wuolo"

Thanks for the answers everyone!

Cool.   

(Hopefully you can take a look at it... just gotta wonder why the box looks like it got soaked at some point).

Benny,
Save the email address; Mats is a super, helpful resource person.

Hi again!

I just wanted to let you know that I bought the Tormek. It turned out to be an completely unused machine with 3 assesories included. The box had gotten wet at one point, but the only thing that had been damaged from the water was the USB. I payed about 75 usd in total. 👌

Thanks for the support, I really appreciate it!

By the way, the assesories are the following:

SVD-185
SVS-50
SVM-100

Benny,
I think you found a good deal on a used Tormek, a rare find.
Enjoy!
