@@SuburbanToolInc I’m just wondering what the initial cost is of that machine and the estimated return of investment will be? Not that I could ever afford a machine like that I’m just curious.

There are so few videos on od grinders and so few people that know how to use them them. I want you to know how much they help, I work In a small shop and we make parts to keep our machines alive and your videos give me the base I need to get started.

Thanks, Don. Like always, excellant video. I was just telling my wife about you discovering your inner teacher & how much you enjoy it. She may not know you, but she knows Suburban Tool... recognizes the name, anyway. Why? She's been MSC's resident lexicographer for 12, 13 yrs, something like that. Lexi-what-a-fer? LOL That's most people's response. She is the knowledge behind MSC's massive product data challenge, of which Suburban contributes w/ your product line. The data organization behind their search engine, & structure of the product titles is her work focus. Her working for MSC has been a gift to me, too. I've been a builder, maker, fabricator my entire life. I'm retired, now, but something I've wanted to learn since high school is machining, but it was never in the cards, situationally or financially. So, I'm doing it now. I added a lathe to my modest sized, over crowded w/ equipment shop almost 7 yrs ago. Planned on adding a mill sooner, but just got 1 this summer; I've been side tracked w/ cancer for almost 5 yrs, so I'm trying to make up for lost time. MSC has been a great company for her to work for; can't say enough good things about them. The 1 thing whichs directly impacts me is their amazingly generous Employee Purchase Program. Because I have a no income hobby shop, I can buy from MSC, through her employee account @ cost +10. I get to buy all kinds of toys! Which brings me to this video. Looking into a boring head, but I'm also looking at fly cutters. You mentioned the cutting tool could be placed horizontally in the boring head; can it double as a large diameter fly cutter in that config? I have some of your excellant cast iron angle blocks. Got one as a 90⁰ reference for my metrology 'dept' & another to create a make shift milling adapter for the lathe. Nice stuff; wish I could buy more Suburban brand, great quality. If I had a job shop, I be a steady customer. Starrett quality, but not the exorbitant tariff for the name. Thanks for contributing to the knowledge base. GeoD

This was very educational. It's going to help me on my project. One thing I am going to do to get that extra thousandths of an inch is to cut a slit in a small bar and place a strip of 400 grit sand paper in it, and let it turn inside the hole. I learned this works well to get that little extra instead of adjusting the tool. You can't overshoot unless you are careless.

As a home hobbyist, I only have a few dollars here and there to sacrifice on tooling. I bought two set of cheap Chinese 123 block and was shocked to find that bolts didn’t pass through the other holes. I had never used high end 123 blocks and didn’t know that the better block the bolts do pass through the clearance holes. I so glad I watched your video before I tried something dumb.
