New Surface Grinder
Yippee! just got in from the shop and placing my new grinder. I have been grinding my springs and blades to thickness by hand since I started making folders. Anyone that makes folders knows this can take a long time to do and get the right thickness for washers on your blades. you also have to fight to keep the sides parallel to each other and not wedged. if your off any your folder just doesn't work as it should.
i found this grinder a couple hours from me for a great price. it should shave a lot of time off my fitting and hopefully take my folders to the next level. Erik |
