This is the machine I can start using in a few day's. If you look closely you can see the belt running flat and horizontal at the top of the machine. Although the backing of the belt is wider then the belt itself I might be able to grind a bevel on the top part of the machine (where the belt runs horizontal and flat). Not entirely sure though if the wheel part is more practical for knife grinding because there is nothing besides the belt. It obviously gives me more room for maneuvering. I don't know how often I can use it. It might therefore not be very practical to be learning on this machine. This is the biggest problem I have to use this machine actually. I like to have my own knife makers belt grinder and learn it on that It's hard though if you live in an appartment in a city... cry cry.. I am looking for solutions though. Maybe a fellow knifemaker that I can share a grinder with who lives in a place where noise is no problem.
What are your thoughts when you see this grinder?
