Tungsten Sharpening.. Cool method..

[sschefer]

Here's a really cool trick I discovered while overthinking a solution for tungsten grinding.

It's just a small block of 1/2 Al with a 7/64 hole drilled in it and a pin vise. The grinder is a Home Depot 50.00 special.



I did 10 2% lanth's in 5 minutes. The block is not mounted so you just hold it with one hand and spin the pin vise with the other.

I've done that and believe it or not, this is tons faster and eaiser to control.. Weird that such a simple device can make life so much easier. I made a litte better one last night and drilled holes in it for all the sizes of electrodes that i use. I'm gonna carry it in my pocket. It works on any grinder.
