I have recently acquired this tool grinder, manufactured in the UK by RJH.
As you can see, it has some kind of sump with a drain plug in the front, which is much deeper than the bottom of the wheel.
I do not have much experience with Tool grinders. What kind of fluid should I use in the sump? Should the fluid level be such that the bottom of the wheel is submerged? Will it splatter all over the place? What sort of extraction system should be used for such a set up?
Is anyone here using a similar machine? I would love to see some photos and hear any tips you may have. I am mainly interested in grinding HSS lathe tools and maybe occasionally carbide. I have some jobs that require special form tools and I’d like to use this grinder to make them.
