I got the itch for a grinder and learned that there was a Harbor Freight place only 100 miles from work so I headed down there to buy of of these.
Now likely I could have taken the wheel mounting flanges off and squared them up off the machine or even in the machine but at that point I only had
16 bucks worth of gas in this thing for the round trip and decided to back away quickly.Anyway, I'm going to build my own now. I have a 1725 tefc motor, some pillow block bearings, and chunk of ductile cast iron that I am going to turn into a rotary lap that I'll charge with 1200 grit diamond paste to finish the edges.
So what grit silicon carbide metal backed cup wheel should I buy?
