Hi all,
I picked up a bench grinder with a diamond cup wheel and toolrest on one side, and a straight diamond wheel with no rest on the other side.
I'm planning to use this for grinding brazed carbide bits, or retouching the occasional insert.
Can anyone explain what the straight wheel is needed for, that the cup wheel can't do? The only thing i can think of would be grinding a chip breaker on the sharp corner of the wheel....
Thanks,
Lee
