CBN for Tormek
Has anyone fitted a CBN wheel to a tormek?
Do you need to true up this type of wheel?
My current standard wet wheel requires dressing and truing up regularly which is a time consuming process and would rather spend the time turning
Any information would be welcomed.

I don't know about fitting a CBN to a Tormec but I have been using my CBN grinder for about 2 years now and have never even wiped the suface down and it still sharpens like new.Fantastic.

Woodcut CBN wheels
Have been using it with the water as the wheel is nickle plated, also helsp move the slury to the base so no metal sticking to the wheel.
Will give it a big workout this weekend at the Phillip Island Down Under TurnaroundJim Carroll

Would the CBN fit on a scheppach grinder? I don't think they use a weird sized shaft.

At the moment we have the 250mm but on the next order we will get the 200mm.
The shaft needs to be 12mmJim Carroll

Grinding Wheels
I stumbled upon this looking up CBN wheels:

I was at DUTA and used the CBN Tormek combination. Simple to use, more than adequate sharpness (throws that Pandora's Box open ) and no truing/grading the stone.
I have decided to order a Woodcut CBN wheel to replace my Tormek grey wheel, which is due for replacement anyway and bloody has corrupted/converted me to the spark/high speed versions . . . that will happen when I need to replace the current wheels.Pat
