Ed, it looks a lot like the Baldor I have. I go along with the white wheel on the left but if you're using the the green one on the right for carbide it just doesn't cut it (so to speak). You have, of course read Harold-V's discourses. Can we argue against him?

Steve,
I just haven't gotten around to purchasing a diamond wheel to replace the HF supplied green piece of cement on the right side. It's on the list of thing to procure, soon.
We cannot argue against high speed Harold's discourse. I've done the grinder modifications on a 6" grinder to accept 7" surface grinding wheels per Harold and it does work as he says it will. It's great if you use HSS tool bits. I use both HSS (sorry Ken
) and carbide insert tooling.

I've seen Ken sharpen and use HSS.

Didn't I make a comment the other day about old farts not remembering posts. Well, I guess it's true as proven by Willie. I'm not sure I want to thank him though.

John,
I know, that's what I've been doing the last couple of evenings when I get home from work. He's a real down to earth guy that would fit right in on this forum.
