The Crushgrind ceramic grinder mechanism is the best I have come across - it produces an excellent grind reliably. Being made of ceramic, it is capable of grinding salt and pepper (or any other small spice) equally. Indeed, the recommended way to clean the mechanism is to run some coarse salt through it.
These are very easy mechanisms to fit and you do not need to be accurate on length as the top pushes on rather than being held on by a little screw cap. The only slightly tricky part is cutting a rebate for the plastic spring clips to fit in - but a tool can easily be made by grinding up a cheap Chinese chisel. Dimensions and instructions on how to use them can be found on Crushgrind's Austrailian parner's website. That site suggests grinding off the spring tabs, but it is much better to leave them on and cut a rebate - it is not that hard.
I have some surplus 10 inch mechanisms. Details for online ordering to follow; in the main time please use the contact me link.
. I'm selling them for £5 each plus postage at cost while stock lasts. You should find that price very hard to beat - the best price I could find was 50% more.
These are solid stainless steel and made in Europe (Thiers in France - the French equivalent of Sheffield in the UK). To use then, just drill a 3mm or 1/8 inch hole in the handle that you have made and screw it in. In use, screwing into a cork will drive the other end further into the handle.
