What can I do with a surface grinder?

Oh, one other thought... I've been using the KoolMist on the SG and it makes a day & night improvement. Without it, the part warms up and expands and you find the back-pass taking off just as much as the forward pass and even sometimes, you could reset the part to the beginning and the wheel is still taking off material without making a downward adjustment. With the mist, the part stays cool the whole time. I've found that parts have virtually no thickness differences whereas before, a 3" wide part might be off by 0.0002 or 0.0003".

I still do not have a good handle on what types of wheels to use on which materials. If anyone has any thoughts about that, I'd love to hear it.
