I am making some little stainless cutters- like a round cookie cutter but only 15mm id. I have them blanked out and need to grind a bevel on the end. I have the blank turned with a 15 degree bevel. My plan is to put a secondary bevel on it at about 30 degrees. I need to experiment with this some by testing a bevel on the outside and the inside. Materials are 316 and 17-4ph h1150 for the moment.
I have a tool and cutter grinder with a motorized head. No real id grinding capability. I am going to try to rig something using a router or a hand grinder just for testing the id. This is my first outing with this grinder so I only know what I have read, watched on youtube, and read here.
My question is what kind of wheel would be best for grinding the o.d. secondary bevel? And what kind of point would be best for grinding an id bevel?
I am inclined to use some sort of type 11 wheel for the od and a cbn point for the id. And where to get these? Norton seems like this huge big company now that does not even know what it is selling anymore. I called a few what appeared to be smaller vendors but no help yet here either.
