Here is a tip for the home shop guys who don't have the $ to drop on the wheels available commercially and aren't doing tons of work and just need to clean up a few pieces. Make friends with the guys who take care of the floors where you work. The floor scrubbers and burnishers use wheels with a punch out center that is 3-3/4" in diameter. If you ask them nicely they will probably give you all of these little gems you could ever need. They come in a multitude of "grit sizes" from white which is a super fine burnishing wheel to black which is a stripping wheel. There are at least a dozen different colors in between. They are 3/4" thick and with a little work you can adapt them to fit on any arbor size you need to fit with a punch or die. I use them for everything including scrubbing pots in the kitchen at home. They are fantastic for polishing metal in the shop but they will break down quickly but then the cost on them is nothing and they work like a charm. Got some rust you need to remove? Grab one. Paint to remove? Check. Get a mirror like polish? Grab a white one and go to town. Like I said, you can probably get them for free or a six pack at most. The bigger the floor area, the more they will go through keeping them clean and shiny. I've gotten whole shopping bags full when the floors are being worked from stripping to polished.

Improve the performance of a wire wheel by reversing it occasionally. The wires get worn in one direction. When reversed, it has sharp, pointed wires that are very aggressive until they get worn down then its time to reverse it again. Try it and be surprised at the difference. 👍🏻. 🇺🇸😎

This is a little off topic-- but i wanted to mention that I have some sharpie pens that have lasted 7 years. Here is how I did it. When a pen starts drying up, I get a piece of 1" long surgical rubber tubing. I use the semi clear stuff. This has a about a 3/16" Id and fits the end where the pens wick (tip) sticks out. I have a piece of wood drilled with a 1/2' set of holes drilled into it, I stand up the pen in the hole, slip the tubing over the tip end, and add about 3/4' of Denatured alcohol. you can see it fill up thru the tubing. when it reaches the top - I put the pens cap on it. I stand up about 3 at a time like this, it takes about 4 hours for the d.alc to wick back into the pen. next day I observe that it is done , pull off the tubing , wipe up any residue, and recap The pen. Like I say the pens can last a long time, there is a lot of ink in them, it just prematurely dries up with all the dry stuff you mark. Another point -- These Can be used as Emergency lighting -- just light the end of the pen -- it essentially is an alcohol light. watch out it might melt down being plastic so best not to hold it.

As always, good stuff Joe. I use the 3m 9s fine exclusively.. usually for deburring finished machined edges. When I was an apprentice back in the late 90s, I would have to use that wheel to buff .03 radii around a 6 sided block. If I didn't get the radii to meet perfectly at the corners, or the deburred edge wasnt the same width along the entire part, I would have to start over. I use the same practice to this day.

Thanks Joe for the tips on deburring, before everyone goes down to their local b&q or Home Depot, they should be looking for a beefier motor and not the budget 6” 400 watt ones, they just struggle to fight their way out of a paper bag! Never mind trying to keep things going with integrity!Usually the 8 “ bench grinders have a little more oomph, you could always look for a used Ex-industrial electric motor nearer to a 1horsepower plus the momentum of the mass of the shaft /rotor etc give good torque. Then make a custom adapter to mount on the shaft and appropriate size threaded output for the wheels etc. Most guys will know this from experience but the odd one or two might not, for the cost of a new budget grinder you can buy twice the HP motor on the likes of eBay. Like I said before,I’m not trying to teach folk how to suck eggs, but if I save one guy from ending up disappointed, then I’d be happy enough ,thanks again Joe, soon as you mentioned the 3M fibre discs I did a quick search, Christ they are dear but if the save time and money, it validates them.

One thing to add on those EXL Wheels -- They are Very Directional -- If you run them Backwards -- You can dig in and literally have a pile of gray fuzzy spaghetti all over the place. The directionality is easily determined with the hand -- Rub one way, and it is smooth, the other way (The wrong way) it has a drag effect to it. Run it toward you the way it feels smooth. They do not always have Arrows on the sides. Very Important.

A lot of these wheels seem to have weird mounting requirements. For example, that loose scotch-brite wheel need some sort of a flange to support it, as well as the convolute wheels, which in the 8-in size all seem to have a 3-in diameter hole. Specific recommendations, including mounting hardware, for an 8-in bench grinder would be greatly appreciated.
@GlennInLaguna4 жыл бұрын
There are flanges by 3M that reduce the 3" hole down to whatever arbor size you have. I am currently using Jet 1hp buffer that have the 5/8" arbor. If that is what you have search for "3M Brand Tapered Flange 356" for the 3" to 5/8" arbor reduction. Check at trugrit DOT com. I know 3M makes other 3" hole flanges that reduce to other size arbors. Again check at trugrit DOT com , look under "Buff-etch-sharpen" . I think Jantz knifemaking has them as well.

The flap wheel tip was cool but do you have any tips for dressing the fiber wheels? They always have grooves and large radii worn into them that make it hard to get into corners. I've even tried a carbide endmill and it wore down the endmill pretty fast without doing anything be ripping chunks out of the wheel
@Gfoke4 жыл бұрын
I use expired carbide turning inserts held by my trusty vise grip. I cut like 8 or 10 grooves even across the wheel, then go back and forth until nice and round. I should add that you have to jam the insert in the wheel with quite a bit of force, (not really possible to do without some kind of rest on the grinder) otherwise the wheel will annihilate the remaining edge of the insert before it removes any of the wheel. We use these to deburr everything in our shop, but most of the buffoons I work with insist on cutting as deep of grooves as possible in the wheel.
@joepie2214 жыл бұрын
I agree with the other comment. Use a worn out insert and rake the wheel. I believe speed is your friend and use some pressure. If you try to dress the wheel, the wheel will win.

I personally never wear gloves around anything that spins, I'd rather a little burn than get caught and pulled into the machine. Just my opinion, not a recommendation

I use welding gauntlets, so the ‘loose’ but is higher up the arm.

@@sharg0 myself aswell, have had a finger caught and torn up in a 5" grinder with a meat axe blade, only the once, and only because I was wearing a glove, caught it and pulled my hand in, if I wasnt wearing gloves, all it would have done was nic my finger tip. Very hard arguement to win with OHSA but experience and lateral thinking are rules, not a paper pushing desk sitter. Lol. I'm in New Zealand, so unsure of rules in other countries, but here, over the last thirty years, things have gotten a little stupid. Removing the thinker from the job, robot do this, this way. Lol

The grinder with the 3M buffing wheel is the most used machine in the shop.

Recently, I've been using wheels from Benchmark Abrasives. BM-SPW45AO_1 has been my go-to disc (leaves a lovely finish that's better than 320 grit sandpaper). Now that you point out R.S. Hughes, it's time to go shopping, since they have a mega selection.

I usually use a thinner collar. And for the pink wheels, I reverse the outer washer.

I just consumed a brand new high quality file only by rounding of the edges on 2 pcs. Ø 200 mm t=3 mm stainless 316 that had been water cut. That steel is a real bitch to grind and polish.

Sometimes the garnet from the waterjet process is in the edges that got cut. Its very abrasive.
