    Cheers Mick. I will do that to the next grinder I get from a scrapyard. I just posted a video of fixing a scrapyard one. I will be converting it to silicon carbide on one end and a diamond wheel on the other for grinding and honing carbide bits.

    I did the same last year. I put 2 wire wheels on with different strength wires, which is even better. I had to do away with guards as it was slowing it down and they've splay out with use. Use it so... much now👍

  • @moonolyth
    @moonolyth 3 роки тому

    Wire wheels are overlooked on a bench grinder. I believe softer is better, and I believe it's better to remove the guard especially if no stone. I'm skimming through youtube to adapt a chuck dead center so I can use anything on an 8inch unit.

    I was thinking maybe if you put a smaller washer on the inside of the concave washer that might sure that up a little better ? Your grinder is about as powerful as mine . Does the job , you don't want to clean up that wrench much more it may look like you ain't done nothin' !😆
