Title: Grinding in't mill
Post by: chipenter on February 23, 2016, 02:20:39 PM

I have made a pair of 1 2 3 blocks and decided to grind them to the finished size , made a mandrill for 80mm silicon wheel and tried it works very well and a good finish , the only problem was the stone wears quickly as it's small , and I spent more time messuring than grinding .

This is usually not that bad, that everyone thinks it is.. You dont relly need to cover EEEVERYTHING either.. just make sure it doesnt get into the leadscrews.. I used a thick grease as dust traps and got rid of it with alcohole when i was done.

The clean up was easyer than milled steel as it vacumed very easyly , just made shure that anything oiled was covered , and that the table moved the same way so the dust went towards the back .
