Mt wife has a gryphon glass grinder that she has stopped using as her art projects shift direction. Can this be used on edging thin slabs? I have no idea of the rpm and the literature that came with it is useless. Any ideas?

As far as I know, so long as you are careful then it will work. Have used them in the past myself lol

They work great. All three models are made for glass but plenty powerful enough for rock. Hard pressure will wear out the grinders quicker so use light pressure (or buy more accessories from me). Gryphon has a 5 year warranty on their "no stall motor" grinders so they are pretty confident you won't wear the unit out. I did burn up a Gryphette by pouring water over the top of a groove bit and getting it into the motor.
