I have a 8” Variable Speed Delta Bench Grinder
I’m trying to make it more useable. The tool rests are way to small and hard to adjust. They are pretty much Useless!!! Especially the one side that has a grove in it for drill bits. I wish it was just a flat plate like the other side. So I’m going to fix that issue after watching a YouTube video with the same grinder.
The grinder came with Grey 36 and 60 Grit Wheels. I have heard that White wheels are better for grinding HSS Tool Bits.
What Grits should I be looking for to grind HSS Tool Bits?
This grinder is just for grinding HSS. I have another bench grinder for general work.
I haven’t had much luck grinding my HSS and getting a good surface finish. I got thinking maybe it has something to do with the Grey Wheels and the Grits that came with my bench grinder.
