Mine's a DIMAR 8" set and it's been excellent! Comes with a really nice foam packed storage case. Not cheap, but I'll have it for the rest of my life.
I have one niggly little complaint ("Of course you do, Dan; we'd expect nothing less!")
The plastic shims have a precisely punched arbor hole that is pretty much exactly the size of the arbor. Putting them on and off is a royal p.i.t.a!
No idea why they didn't allow some wiggle room on the hole size; can't see how a few thou of slop would matter for a shim...there's virtually no mass involved.
I'm seriously considering looking for 3rd party shims.
