Tool Grinder

(1/5) > >>

Darren:
One way of doing it I suppose !!

bogstandard:
Hi Darren,

Very rough and ready, but if it works, 'nuf said.

Bit difficult doing internal grinding though, and I think the peripheral speed might be a bit high, lots of heat generated.

Bernd:
I'd probably tip my lathe over if I mounted the grinder I have like that.  :)

But it gives the brain something to think about if I ever find a samller version.

Bernd

bogstandard:
I forgot to add, in that configuration, the chuck needs to run backwards. Much too much friction and burning otherwise.

John

Baldrocker:
OK newbie time again.
I like that idea but the thought of all that grit flinging
around in close proximity to h/s bearing and chuck
scrolls gives me the willies. Your thoughts gentlemen!
BR.

PS How about mounting the grinder on a vertical slide
to make a surface grinder? Feel free to shoot me down.
