16 forum posts 86 photos | A HSS broken cutting saw blade was begging for a second life. Taper groung faces 80dia. x 1.6 thick HSS Co5% used for cutting s/s tube. When ground it gives about 10mm cutting depth. The first design has the blade center 1mm below lathe center height. It allows the blade to be rotated up to tool center and gives some top rake.The next design will only have 0.5mm below. This would avoid excessive grinding to obtain front clearance. If it digs in it rotates down and away from work. Great for circlip and oring grooves. |
