Hi, I have a GRS power hone with all the laps,but even with the 180 "Gator" it takes forever to blank out the basic shape (tapers) on a new graver small enough to be of use.
So if you don't mind I would sure like to know how the "Pros" get it done. I can't imagine someone spending their day grinding out flats to reduce face size.:thinking:
I see the stuff that mounts on a drill press but also see a possible problem with heat. I make tiny carving tools all the time but heat treat them after shaping. I would like to avoid that with graver blanks. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
