When eliminating wobble on a two wheel grinder, does it matter if both wheels are mounted. Should you eliminatet the wobble on one and then mount the other? It seems they should be independent but just checking. Same question for dressing one of the wheels. For wobble, what is considered...

I want to devote one of my belt sanders for sharpening my tools and build a jig for it. My question is if I use my Harbor Freight 4X36 Belt Sander, what would be the best grit to use assuming only one grit would be sufficient. I've been using a homemade 2X48 Belt Sander but 2" is too narrow for...

I finally decided to put my Rikon grinder on the shelf under my lathe. Being concerned about the dust and shavings, I approached my wife about this dilemma. She does a lot of sewing and came up with this. It is a heavy fabric similar to Cordura and has a vinyl lining. She took the...

I saw a nice setup for the low speed grinder yesterday and forgot to bookmark it or note it. It was a video of a lady who built a wood lathe stand with some drawers and a compartment for the grinder. The grinder was mounted on a lift system that allowed it to be brought out and up to sharpen...

I have a OneWay clone jig on my slow speed grinder. I have seen several comercial setup blocks for getting the tool rest to a specific angle. I have also seem pictures of jigs made from plywood. I would like to keep cost down by cutting a jig out of 1/4 inch plywood to set the correct angle...

I have a set of HF beginner's HSS tools, Rikon low speed grinder, and the Wolverine sharpening jig. My grandson and I were working on a mini baseball bat for his older cousin. While sharpening the 3/4 inch roughing gouge, I held it up to the light and I noticed that one side of the grind was...

OK, I just finished a bee hive of an unknown wood, applied two coats of satin WOP. Looks decent but, to me, not good. This is only my second real turning but realize that I have a lot more to learn. What would be the result of polishing satin WOP? I know many use a gloss finish and polish...

First, my apologies if this has been covered earlier; I've looked and can't find the answer to my question. Is there a problem using a 1/2 horse (5.0 amp) grinder with two CBN wheels? My grinder (a Craftsman, variable speed, 8", with 5/8" arbors) is less than a year old. It really groans when...

Hello all, I'm just getting in to turning, and my bench grinder / sharpening station needs some serious rehab. Right now it's a 6" grinder on a B&D Workmate... It's way too low for long term use, and the workmate is nearing the end of days, so it's time for a new base. The big question...

I need a new grinder for the Lathe Studio. Want the best I can afford, 8" should be large enough I think, but I was wondering about who makes the best grinder for lathe tool sharpening? I was hoping to find a 2 speed or a variable speed one so that sharpening can be done at a slower pace...

I have a Baldor 602E grinder and am ready to change wheels from the original 36-grit and wire brush to a set of Norton aluminum oxide. Baldor doesn't seem to make it easy, though. To remove the wire brush on the right I wedged the 36-grit wheel on the left and used a crescent wrench to loosen...
