Look up Daniel on here. he was renting his out a while back. It is one of the real good $400 jobs and he was charging like $25 to rent it out. If I was gonna do it I would go that route.

I have had one of the Ideal 250 watt hand groovers for several years now, and just bought one of the 125 watt ones off eBay a week or so ago for a whopping $25 shipped :p

Mine gets loaned out more than I actually get to use it - so I figured a second one wouldn't be such a bad idea :)

Daniel is a heck of a guy, and as long as you take good care of the tool and return it in the same shape you got it, then he'll most likely continue to be generous.

On that note, his groover rocks!

If you just want it for one use - sounds like a good deal. Otherwise, I'll stick with my slow little tire tool... because it is MINE, and PAID FOR, and WORKS JUST FINE ;)

I hate to say but i have to agree on DRM on this one. The cheaper one may be slower but it works just fine.
