And the winner is !

One thing I like about this forum is the incredible mix of talents found here. You can ask about pretty much anything even if it is only just a little machine related. Another thing is that posters here just seem to want to help, not show off (except for cool new tool acquisitions ) and do not belittle the person needing help. That doesn't always happen on other forums I've visited.

we did have a few less agreeable people here for a time, but they all left to create their own forum. Didn't last long though.

There is so much to absorb as an older generation newbie, I am profoundly grateful to the career machinist, and all of the knowledgeable people passing on their expertise on this site. I'm still the resident hack, but I've gotten gooder

I agree without doubt that everything you said describes my attraction to this forum. Thanks for pointing out this forum does not allow Belittling. It is a forum of attraction and not promotion.

I have to program my contacts in this new phone . Should I change it from Aukai to H M Resident Hack ? ( and I can tell you're getting more better )

Here’s a manual for a similar enough grinder that it has a picture of the “inside grinding” setup. But as Woodchucker pointed out, you’re not quite there yet. Close though!

Glad to be of help! If not for this place, I’d have been up a creek more times than I can count.

I like the array of differing opinions when you ask a question, there is rarely a single way to do anything and it usually helps to have multiple view points to reference.

Nelson Timken our founder was roughed up and belittled on other sites so he decided to make a new one without all the baggage
and a maximum of helpfulness and politeness- Thank Nelson for all this

Only forum I frequent anymore, and even a few of you are starting to get on my nerves. Mike
