Just to put things back on track for Grinder.

What you have made looks great, and I am sure with the correct grinding technique, it will work fine.

Just a suggestion now.

If you want to continue to use the grinder you have been using, you just need to change your method slightly.

The grinding 'grooves' should lay at 90o to the cutting edge, the way you are doing it now, your 'grooves' will in fact lay sort of parallel to the cutting edge.

The way to get them laying correctly, feed the cutting edge in the Y axis rather than the X axis as you are doing now.

Line up the cutting edge in the Y axis in line with the grinder spindle, then just feed in on the Y until you have cut the whole cutting edge, retract, rotate to the next edge and repeat. Do not move in the X axis.

I hope this explains it OK.

Something is very wrong when Bogs is described as a "newbie" :bugeye: I cannot think of a less appropriate adjective.
