I used to use a valve grinding machine to grind the end of the end mill so it was square. I then used a dremmel tool to grind the reliefs being very careful to not touch the end. It may not have been as good as a tool grinder, but it worked. Jim

I got a Independent Pneumatic Tool Co. Electric Valve Refacer model 100 It is so nice, I'm wondering if anybody converted one of these to use as a tool grinder. It looks possible. Does anybody in the group have one?



I've used a KO Lee to reface valves. Does that count?

Thanks Jim and Steve for the suggestions, I appreciate it.....Peter
