Token Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Just remember to keep the grinder at an angle and sort of glide over the rim, don't stay in one spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An_toin3 Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 here is one of my grind, I'm pretty sure that it should be looking like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR28 Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 I'll try and do one this week sometime if I can find my video camera... theres a few differences between how AndyT and myself grind - my way takes off less material and makes the grind sharper (depending on the disc used anyway). Should be able to get some good pics as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaRtZ Posted February 25, 2007 Report Share Posted February 25, 2007 (edited) Iolo used a technique he used of putting the wheel in a wheel stand, put the angle grind on it flat so that the speed of the disc spins the wheel faster and faster (up to 11,000 rpm) and THEN grind the b*stard!
