    I observed that your supervisor, who happens to be a cat, came out to inspect your work. ❤

      Precision grinding requires a cat scan to validate the precision of the work.

    Very informative. Glad to find your channel. Looking forward to the next, and I will check out your previous videos as well. I see we have chickens and KO Lee tool and cutter grinders in common so far.

    Thank You,Sir, well explained! I own a U3 TC grinder, a Deckel S0 clone. "Should be" possible to do the same, but a "real" TC grinder like yours would do it much more exact and repeatable...

    I find it much better to use a cup wheel to grind the end of the cutter. Your wheel works but a cup wheel has much more wheel before its worn out and when you dress it you have much less wheel to remove. Also with a newer cicncinnati #2 with a tilting wheel head you can also use the cupwheel to grind the od just tip the head to your 5-7 degrees.

    • @Lappemountainliving
      @Lappemountainliving  26 днів тому

      I don't disagree with you. However the cup wheel i have on hand is much courser and is tough to get into a tight corner like the one I was dealing with in this case.

      Again I don't disagree with you however, the cup wheel I have on hand is very course and the cutting edge degrades into a big flat very quickly and that's what makes it tough to get into a tight spot. There is very little room between the tooth I am grinding and the next one that I don't want to hit and with the big flat I would be into the next tooth before I'm off of the one I'm grinding.

      It's a B2060 model. I remember having to wait a bit longer for it because it has a longer than normal table.

    Great video. I'd like to make a center of rotation gage for myself. Any chance you could send me some simple dimensions of yours? Thank you! PS: The vacuum head dims you sent me worked out great!

      Glad you enjoyed the video. More to come...
      Sure I'd be happy to send you some dimensions.
      It will take me a few days but I will get something to you as soon as I'm able.
      Cheers!
