One last quick little project I've been meaning to do. I have a carbide tool grinder but wanted to make a smaller unit. I found some CBN wheels really good price for 4inch dia unfortunately they came busted in the mail. The seller gave me a refund but I really did want a set of wheels and asked if he'd just try it again. Apparently didn't want to deal with me again and just gave me a refund oh well. I found some other wheels a little more on the price so we will see how they come.
In the mean time I had a piece of aluminum channel 5" wide so I started. I'm making 2 as a friend of mine is just starting setting up a home shop so I'm making one for him. The motors I'm using are 12volt motors high torque really nice motors and I'm using old computer power packs for the power. Should work really good. I used one of these motors for the power feed conversion on my lathe. I ordered a couple more. Anyway this little project shouldn't take too long provided I get CBN wheels this time that aren't smashed and broken.
