    I have not really been very active here due to time spent on the Aussie blade forum, although at least one member here owns one now.

    There there, . . . . just wait till you get it and then you'll be able to tell us all about it.

    I got myself an 80 grit because I use mine mainly to shape bits - and it leaves a reason to buy a 180 in the future

    Unfortunately Bob, if the 180 grit is as awesome as everyone says, I can see myself getting an eighty grit as well...

    I have spent next to no time in the shed for the past month and a half now... At this rate I will have forgotten how to turn the grinder on when it arrives...

    Yea rub it in Stuart.....

    Anyhoo, the wheel has turned up... They have a 1.250" centre, good for the TC grinder..

    the main part is solid steel and balanced, so it spins for about half an hour after you shut it down..

    The CBN is electroplated on bit I am not familiar with CBN wheels but it appears to be only 1 layer thick.. Once that exposed layer is gone the wheel is worn out..

    Even though it is 180 grit it certainly removes the metal and is cool cutting...

    Came up with a way to use these wheels...

    I rough out on a very very coarse wheel and finish the grind on the CBN wheel... As there is then limited exposure of the steel to any heat on the extreme edge that often suffers when grinding on normal wheels...
