This Guy is gonna GET what he deserves...
Yeah made up my mind this morning!
Having just received my Surface grinder the other day was in search for some new wheels. Checked the usual places Fleabay, MSC Etc and just decided to try locally.
Got on the Puter and looked up Machine shops in Phoenix
Made a few calls no luck. Came across a place that does only surface grinding.
Explained what a nube I was and the guys say come on over I may have a few stone's I can sell ya.
Doesn't know me from Adam but seemed very nice.
One man shop loaded with machines and clutter (Kinda like my shop) invite's me in and hands over three new 7" Norton wheels for $50. Asks me if I have a Diamond for dressing them Uhh no my answer. Rumages thru a drawer and hands me a new one and says here you will need this
Just about to leave and then we start talking knives, up till then I was just a stranger.
Spent another hour there enjoying the conversation, said my thanks and left.
He earned himself a Nice Bowie without even a hint of asking for a knife.
Getting profiled and ground tomorrow. Hope he likes it
