...and while breaking balances it, it doesn't really make much sense, I mean it is really just some gears rotating with nothing in them. Ahh, but it has to grind the Stone into an finer form. in real life, if it were to be ginding items 24/7, there would be a chance of it jamming, and possibly exploding. But now that I think about it, I'm more on Direranger's side. you'd have to re-craft it with new stone slabs and new gears.
