The locking surface on the 30 degree tilt is worn badly. It is worn below the pivot arbor and cannot tighten properly. I will reface it flat and build it back up using a bronze washer.

New face washer and lock is 100%.

Yes Dan, that is it's purpose. If the splash becomes too much, plexiglass sides will be added. As you see it, it's 1 inch deep.

Hope I'm not hijacking your thread, just hoping to give you some more ideas
I built a single lip cutter grinder fashioned off the Deckel ones. Still need to make some holders for end mills and such but for now works for lathe and shaper tools and D bits.
Used a tread mill motor to dial in 3600 for the wheel shown or 5000 for a diamond faced wheel I have.

Simply brilliant! What did you start with? How much did you build yourself? Do you have a build thread?
 
Tomorrow is another day. I have to make a travel stop to limit the movement of the work holder across the wheel. This was one of the parts that is missing.

Wow bill, I figured you had posted this and it was gonna be a nice slow build I could follow along with. Next thing I know you're halfway done with the dang thing ;) Looking good in any case, and I'm excited to see the end product.
 
Bill,
This is an awesome thread. Thanks for taking the time to share this.
