The wheel used for hollow grinding that came with my Wilton is a bit rounded on the edges. Older model Wilton so probably used quite a bit. Is that wheel toast or is it suppose to be like that? Have not tried the hollow grind yet. Still trying to get the flat grind down. Thanks to Josh for his tip I read in this forum with regard to using painters tape for a guide line. Something that simple will make it much easier for this old bird to see. One more thing. Right now I have leather on the face of my flat platen. Do you think putting a piece of glass over the platen will help with my attempt at a better grind? Plunge cuts are my troublesome area on the flat grind so far. So I will try less pressure & the tape. What is the idea behind adjusting the belt to approximately 1/8 over the edge of the platen? I guess I need to try that too. Thanks for any advice in advance!
