GRINDING JIG,
GJ-01 - This tool from Alisam Engineering is a reproduction*
of South Bend Lathe Works cutter bit grinding block not in
production for many years. Each grinding block will come with
your choice of two (2) square tool bit holders for $89.99.
Tool holders come
in 5 different sizes - 3/16", 1/4", 5/16",
3/8" and 1/2" to fit most quality, ground, square
modern tool bits! We do have a very limited supply of "blank"
tool bit holders so you can modify one yourself to fit your
needs. Additional tool holders are $19.99 each ... or purchase
the complete set for $139.75.
*We have increased
the capacity of the tool holders by adding the 1/2" square
tool bit size which was not available from SBL. In doing so,
we increased the overall size of the block and the diameter
of the tool holders by about .19 inch. Thus our model will
NOT interchange with the original.
Also comes with
complete, detailed, easy instructions with cutter bit data
sheet and an Allen wrench.
The ease at which
a machinist can now grind very accurate compound angles on
their square tool bits, cutter bits is without comparison!
Place your cutter bit in the appropriate sized tool holder,
rotate the center tool holder to achieve the desired side/back/top
rake angle, lock set screw and grind on your grinder or belt/disc
sander. The block automatically creates a 10 degree clearance
angle just like the original (but may be placed flat to achieve
a small degree of front clearance).
