ClosER. Closer still would be 25/32. 101/128 closer yet. You get the point.

Oh yes, that sounds like a precision job! :-)

Model Engineer has a plan for a toolpost grinder. The article starts July

1968 (#3348). If you can get your hands on those issues. *) But still I think the Quorn is a good spindle with its preloaded ball bearings.

If you want a perfect surface, it won't be a piece of cake. A converted benchtop-grinder won't help you much.

*) Bought three packs of them 2 weeks ago for 15.- EUR
