Bought a surface grinder awhile back and have been kinda frustrated with it. Was getting ridges in my material.
Thought the wheel might need dressing. Bought a diamond dresser and after dressing it, same thing ridges. Out in the shop tonight started trying to solve my problem again. Decided to decrease the amount I turned the wheel in the X axis. Sho nuff that did the trick. Seems I wasn’t staying in the “sweet spot” on the wheel. Now I have a really nice finish on my steel. Thought this might help someone new to surface grinding like me.
