Thread: What Did You Do Today (2017)
10/12/2017 12:19:06

Many thanks Jim.

I made the mistake of using Ronseals Diamond Hard Varnish on my benches. Great finish but it dissolves in an instant when using IPA or cellulose thinners. Using these mats may save me from having to sand it all off.

Just spent a happy hour recovering the benches in the shed. Used cutting mats, hopefully they will last.....

Jim

Jim,

I'm thinking of doing the same thing - can you give us more detail?

What size mats and where from? Did you glue them on?

thanks

Thread: Trying to choose a diamond grinding wheel
19/04/2016 19:27:58

Hi all,

I want to replace one of the grinding wheels on my 6" bench grinder so I can sharpen my turning tools (brazed carbide tipped) and tungsten carbide masonry drills.

Reading past threads suggests that diamond wheels are the way to go but I'm totally confused by the different array of shapes available. An example of what I mean can be seen here at Arc's page..

**LINK**

So my question is, what shape is for what purpose and what would be recommended for my needs?

thanks in advance

Geoff

Allan,

PLEASE continue to post on this great project. In a year that has seen more than its fair share of negativity, your thread has been one of the highlights and reminds us all of the true purpose of this forum.

There is an interesting thread on the HMEM site on the use of Lanolin for rust prevention.
