Hi,
I have a small shop that sharpens among other things chipper blades out of small portable chippers. The ones you see tree service guys using.
They like to chip rocks along with the trees!
Sometimes the blades need a full 1/8 or more removed to sharpen them.
This takes a long time on the grinder. Good way to lose money.
I don't know the hardness but was wondering about getting a bit of a beater milling machine and maybe face milling the bulk of it off.
The blades are mostly A8 hardened 5/8" thick and ground to around 35 degrees.
Thoughts?
