First hollow grind

Tried my first hollow grind today. With all due respect and absolutely no disrespect to anyone at all, hollow grinding was wayyyyy easier for me. I had way more control over my plunge lines, I had more control over my edge. For me it was a better way to a good product, faster. I realize it's not perfect, but for the time invested, it's a much nicer product than the same time spent flat grinding. I'm sold. My setup is second rate at best, but a nice contact wheel just made it to the top of my wish list. Thank you to all those here who have helped and posted advice.
