Man! Thats an awesome size surface grinder!

[@dlbknives4869]

Well done......you've got a real machine shop going on there.

[@CraigArndt]

That finished incredibly well, nice shine!

[@tropifiori]

That will save you a lot of work. A lovely tool. Congrats

[@eyuptony]

Hi Loz. That motor will be the same frame size as your old one. Fantastic little grinder in great condition also I noticed your lathes so quiet compared to mine. You'll have to rig yourself a dust extractor for your grinder now. I'd change the belt, it's worth it. Like to see it working some more. I'm Jealous to death......

[@LozHarrop]

Thanks Tony, got my 36 grit wheels in today and tried them out, brilliant ! gives a great finish on a slow pass and the steel only warm to the touch just got to rig up the mist spray, also got another smaller chuck coming so I can take a pass over it and get it all dead true. ill do a video on it.

[@RickRabjohn]

awesomeness!!!! This grinder plus your myford lathe are perfect for the home shop. There smaller but heavy duty ( not like those new chinese mini lathes So, Great adds to your already uber shop. You da man Loz Cheers.

[@LozHarrop]

cheers bud, Hmmmm just wondering what else i need Rick ;-)

[@RickRabjohn]

Loz Harrop A power hammer - screw the neighbors...you deserve it and need one

[@DaMainMouse]

I found light and fast considerably dropped the surface temps and increased the finish, maybe 2 or 3 thou passes and 5thou on cross feed. Misting did nothing for hogging and I made a flood system instead. Theres a few clips on my insta(same name) showing it as I had a few people asking me my setup. Hope this helps a bit 👍

[@LozHarrop]

Hi mate, cheers will check it out, ill be able to work it out better when the coarse wheels arrive

[@DaMainMouse]

@@LozHarrop yes mine is 36g I believe, you can still get the finish with a slower final cut anyway, keeping a sharp edge to the stone is key if not neccessity for a good finish, also when dressing the wheel you want a coarse pass for the final pass to leave almost a spiral in the stone, this keeps it from gumming up as easily.

[@LozHarrop]

Thanks bud, mental note taken

[@wmurray9800]

.001 or .002 cut works more then that heats the stone and the stone can blow up with to deep of a cut coolant running on stone is a big plus. Good job take care mate

[@LozHarrop]

cheers Buddy

[@davidgreen1299]

Ahh. You don't need the spare motor then loz. Glad it's sorted . I know we're to come now

[@LozHarrop]

yea sorted mate, yours was not gonna fit. cheers.

[@godislove201]

Sweet machine...

[@aaronfoster6025]

Congrats! Can't wait to what this opens up for you. I'm not sure if you ever covered this, but what is your machining background? I'm impressed by your skill. Cheers!

[@LozHarrop]

Thanks Aaron, Im pretty new to it all really just pick it up as I go along, been a woodworker most of my life.

[@krknfmkr8919]

Magnetic hold down? We had a simple mister with a nozzle and air pressure. Worked like a spray bottle

[@LozHarrop]

Hi yes that is what i am fitting, need a new magnetic chuck though not got full magnetism across the whole chuck.

[@krknfmkr8919]

That was for a mill but the principal is the same
