I owned a tool & cutter grinder for awhile. I took a class in a local tech
college and learned some about how to use it, but most of it seemed to be tribal
knowledge, you had to learn at the hands of a trained guy. I wound up selling
that machine but before I did I ran across a great little book, out of print for
quite a while, simply titled "Instruction Manual" by the K.O. Lee company. I've
seen this book being offered for exorbitant prices by used booksellers, so
tonight when I saw one advertised on ebay I thought I'd mention it in case any
of you guys are in the position I used to be in. This book is worth its weight
in gold for anyone trying to figure out by themselves how to sharpen milling
cutters, reamers, taps, etc. on a tool & cutter grinder. Moreover, the seller
apparently doesn't know what it is so it's a "stealth" auction. I have no
interest in this item, owning one already, and I have no affiliation with the
seller. See ebay item 150025887296.
