Suppose a flower. maybe a rose. Want to grind the stem, but not even inconvenience the petals. Can it be done?
Can you influence it to get some desired center exactly on center? If so, how expensive is that?
Thanks,

It's a bloody expensive one as well!
I suppose any engineering hobbyist worth his salt could make one, if he needed it that much.

The grinder is a clapped-out Delta/Rockwell that appears to have been the inspiration for the tilting head on the Quorn.
