I've been using a Delta grinder Jack, does a good job, but a bear to set up, and it uses the side of a cup wheel to give a straight grind, I prefer a hollow grind to hone.
Finished roughing the blade holder on the shaper. Had to tighten up the belts, they were slipping on a .05 doc and .014 feed. Nice big curls but my stroke speed must have been too low, they wouldn't turn blue.
Mounted it in the mill for a couple of light passes to straighten out any warp from stress relief, and chamfer the one edge to clear the grinding wheel.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
