Dressing a grinding wheel- ugh.
Alright, so I did some simple searches for diamond grinding dressers, I came up with a whole ton of products all varying hither and thither to the point where I no longer know WHAT to buy- could somebody with a lot of experience in the realm of grinding your own lathe bits please speak up and send me a product link?
Re: Dressing a grinding wheel- ugh.
Buy a lathe bit with a carbide or cobalt insert and try to sharpen it. This will not sharpen it, but it will dress your wheel.

I like dressing my wheels in frilly pink clothes, or tight black leather when I'm feeling saucy.

Its not entirely clear if you are dressing the grinder or yourself in frilly pink clothes.SimeonTurner wrote:I like dressing my wheels in frilly pink clothes, or tight black leather when I'm feeling saucy.
Either way, I'm sure this is contraindicated in your safety manual.
