I have a 20x102 Lodge and Shipley Power Turn that I want to remove the bedways and get ground. Talking with the company that will do the grinding for me there is a concenrn that once I remove the hardened bedways they will twist and should be straightened before I have them ground. The concern I have with any straightning is adding any heat to move them will anneal them. Has anyone ever removed the hardened bedways before and had them grond off from the bedway casting? If so how was it done and did they twist? The overall dimensions of the bedways are 138 3/4" long x 2" x 2" with a double 45 degree V. I know the preferred method would be to leave the bedways fastened to the casting and grind the entire bedway however we quite honestly do not want to have to remove the entire head, feed section and everything below the chip pan. This is our first attempt to do anything like this and any help is greatly appericated!
