At around the same time there was an article in MEW by Ralph Sparrow (MEW 117 July 2006) entitled "Sharpening with diamond discs
Soon after the design was published I got a nice letter from a German model engineer who had made his version of the design but he had improved it by adding a screw rise and fall to make the vertical location of the grinding head more precise. I have to add that my engineering started with D. Napier and Son at the beginning of the 1950's and I didn't touch a lathe or mill 'till I retired 19 years ago. I hated grinding as much when I restarted as I did at the beginning. My main modelling interest was and is flying model aircraft, freeflight and radio control but machining bits and pieces is invaluable.
