Bad, bad memory retention ...
About three years ago - this was after I'd built the grinding fixture described above - I decided to start a do-over. I had completely forgotten this until tonight when something I was reading jiggled my memory ! I had ordered the following parts:
Diamond cup wheel + 3000 RPM motor or so it says on the nameplate. (It took a few minutes to find them in my highly disorganized shop.)
The idea was to have a grinder that would accommodate any lathe tool, HSS or carbide, and maybe a few other types of cutting tools as well. But due to family health issues at the time, I never got around to this project. This time, if I can suppress my impulsiveness, I may take a shot at actually designing the thing, ha-ha-ha.
I hope to add a follow-up to this post in the near future.
