I've been using an old Delta 6" along with the Wolverine fixtures for sharpening my turning tools.
Been satisfied with the results but now face having to replace it.
So I'm considering a couple options and welcome advice / suggestions.
I will be making a quick purchase as I'm dead in the water as of yesterday evening.
Option A- status quo- replace with another 6" and carry on at nominal cost
Option B- go to a low speed 8" Rikon or similar currently $140 at Klingspor
Option C- shift gears to the Grizzly 8" water cooled (T10097A) on sale for $89
or 10" anniversary edition (T10010ANV) on sale for $164
Others?
The 10" Grizzly would represent about the top of my budget but I don't mind paying that or a little more if it gets me something useful.
One question I have is regarding using the Wolverine system with either of the two Grizzlys.
I realize they come with a different type of holding system but I'd rather not ditch the Wolverine.
I've got it, it works and I'm happy with it.
This is really a dedicated grinder for sharpening turning tools.
Thanks for your input
