Cool video! Don't see many of the new Okamoto's in action. Would be awesome if you made more videos, cause whatever you seem to do for work seems pretty awesome! :p
Really nice set up. I like the way you go thru before and after. I notice your okamoto does not have an over the wheel dresser. Does it automatically bottom dress and compansate? We have an older EX machine, late 90’s vintage. The control appears similar, but we have an over the wheel dresser. These okamoto machines are really nice.
Hey knifemaker! Been following you on Instagram for years now, you guys have an awesome shop! Yep, it bottom dresses with the 3 point dresser off to the left of the chuck. It auto compensates after every dress and you have a few different dress modes you can preset. On this setup I would drop my offset around 2 millionths every insert I ground, I found that is about how much the diamond would wear every cycle.
Great video! Our Okamoto is getting set up next week so this was very enjoyable to watch.
Thanks John! Can't go wrong with an Okamoto, enjoy it.
That's one hell of a nice grinding room

Hey bud,, just got a 1224 okamoto. Do you ever grind with borazon?
