The product description states "Easy to install and use, it can be easily applied". This is not accurate.The bench grinder in the product description (my first picture is a screen grab of the promo picture) looks very similar to mine. There is no place to easily bolt these shields on - they actually just show them lying on the bench in front of the grinder with no obvious way to attach them!Now, if you are the kind of person who uses a bench grinder, you are hopefully capable of MacGyvering something that will work - but you will need to get creative and likely bend some metal and drill some holes.In my case, I had to drill out one of the plastic lenses since the hole was not formed properly and the bolt would not fit through. I will also likely replace the nuts with wingnuts so that I can easily adjust the angle of the shield or flip it up when I do not want to use it.The packaging for this product is a lightweight cellophane bag that split along the seam and dumped the contents - including loose nuts and bolts. Luckily the Amazon envelope kept everything together.I am looking forward to having these on my grinder once I figure out a mount for them.

Fits our shop grinder and gives larger clear plastic screens than what the grinder came with. Maybe with these the guys in the shop will actually use them and add a level of safety kept for safety glasses alone.Easy to install, thin but decent construction. The bracket is actually a bit heavier gauge than what came on our inexpensive grinder.Comes with mounting hardware as well.Recommended!
