The Blue Max and other wheels

dimanche 24 août 2014

I have had a Blue Max wheel for a number of years and finally decided it is NOT the wheel to sharpen my tools.



The two grey wheels that came with the grinder I also detest as they get very hot very quickly.



I made my own version of The Robert Sorby pro Edge system and it worked very well to a point. Th problem was that the jig that holds the gouges was too close to the belt. I could see no way to sort it out so I reverted to the grinder.



I have an old Heligrind which has a mounting bar and I able to fit my jig to the bar and use the grinder like a Tormek system. Works beautifully EXCEPT the Blue Max Is just too coarse.



A CBN would be ideal but the cost is the problem....



What is the better of the white and the pink alox wheels?? From what I can glean the pink runs even cooler than the white.
