Having never used a dressing tool of this type, I was torn between it and the wheel style dressing tool I had used in the past. My high ratings convinced me to try this one and I must say that I Even with my very uneven grinding wheel surface, the stick flattened very fast and with little effort, and what's most surprising is that it itself shows very little wear at the end of the process. I love the product, it's great!.
I seem to have used nearly every type of wheel dresser out there It has happened to me that I have taken old wheels and tried to true them up. Grinding wheels with toner sticks are by far the easiest way for me to truing up a The machine doesn't take long to remove the grooves and make the wheel seem more quiet. It takes a minute or two. I think that's a pretty good It is the best condition I have ever had for wheels.
The "star wheel" type of dresser was the only type I had come across with my grinder, but my Dremel came with a tiny stick type and I loved it. So I decided to give this a try when the old wheel dresser finally gave My wheels will be trued in no time with this. In my experience, the star wheel still seems to be slightly faster for heavily loaded grinder wheels, but I still use the stick for wheel alignment This product seems to last for many years, as I have already used it for several years.
Within minutes of receiving it, I did not hesitate to open the package and try it right away and was surprised to find that it began to work on my 8" grinding wheels immediately and cleared all of their clogged pores. In the course of our conversation, a friend of mine asked if he could use my bench grinder, and I told him that he could. I checked that and found that he used aluminum, which clogged the wheel to a great extent.
While the big grinding wheel in your garage will be great to use with this method, it will also be effective on smaller grinders. To true and deglaze Dremel grinding attachments, in addition to those for a larger Craftsman Mold Maker's Grinder (similar to a Dremel Tool), I use it. In addition, it saves on the cost of replacing them by extending their useful lives. The dressing stick is little or no affected by them.
It's a no-brainer Recently, I bought a new wheel that had a 150-grit grit and I thought there was an unevenness in it, and instead it lacked evenness. I found the stick to quickly and easily flatten the grinding wheel surface with little to no effort. That being said, I forecast that this stick would result in lasting for many years, further increasing its According to the directions, you can hone the wheel by moving the stick back and forth. You can move it fast for a rougher feel and slowly for a smoother one once the wheel is trued up. Basically, I use the wheel for spindle and bowl gouges for the lathe, and I chose to do it slow because I only use them briefly. This is not something I can complain about. A sharp that is scary is the right kind.
The following bar was picked up to dress out the 'wobbles' an old grinder had when we used it to true the stones. The stones must first be solid and intact before applying the dressing stick. Apply the dressing stick to both the grinding edge and the sides of the stone to eliminate any I use it a lot, and I highly recommend it. Sure, you may only need to use it a time or two, depending on how often you use your grinder, but you want it when you need This is an investment that will be useful in the future.
In my opinion, it does a pretty good job cleaning some things- The wheel has embedded aluminum from my 8" grinder. Unfortunately, it didn't get the job done, and I was wondering if my wheels were too badly damaged to be repaired. When I got the diamond grinder (Powertec 71003), which is available right here, it took me no time at all to get the job done. The abrasive isn't as aggressive as the diamond grinder, so I intend to use it for "lesser" dressing requirements. However, if I had to choose only one, I would select the diamond grinder.
