belt bump

[Bob Sigmon]

He He He,

I just ordered some on/off magnetic bases the other day. Cause the platen isn't MAGNETIC!

Can you get round pyroceram say 9 or 12 inches? Hum, disc sander faces, it wouldn't be beveled but mine isn't anyway.

Thanks for the suggestion Bob. Pyroceram disks (not beveled) are now available cut to size. Thanks again.

I was very involved in introducing this "feature" quite a while ago in this forum but under another topic. I have used this for at least eight years now and have never wanted a change except for when I wanted to hollow grind of course. You can also use silicon to attatch the glass to your platen and unless your patten has a very severe area of wear there is no need to surface grind or relevel it The glass called neoceran is also an excellent product to use.Plate glass just because it can be thick is prone to cracking.The reason there is not as much (I didn't say no ) belt bump is because the belt slides by easier because of the glass surface compared to metal. Hope this helps Frank

In my 30 + years of grinding blades I have used only a Burr King

2 by 72 inch........8 inch and 2 by 4 wheels ,..Mr. robert Fink

your flat grinding attachment is the answer to every problem

I ever ran into rough grinding a blade .....My question is.....

How do I get one.? these forums are great .!!!!!!
