Got an email introducing this new grinding wheel, thought I'd share it here in the community, I'll let you guess why.

Okay Ed my guess (no pun or insult intended) is that you have a couple hundred burning a hole in your pocket and want to be the first on the forum to have one. I know I should delete this reply but the devil will not allow that. Jim

Maybe you already have one.
At that price it better last a life time.

You can run the exact speed recommended with a Shopsmith head?

Looks to be a weak wheel to me.
"Warning: Grinding non-heat treated steel such as carbon steel, aluminum and other soft metals will cause irreparable damage to the CBN wheel.

Here's another source for CBN wheels --
http://d-waytools.com/tools-diamond-gri ... heels.html -- These wheels are wider than those sold by Craft Supplies and are a few bucks less expensive. If there's a problem with grinding softer metals, I'd expect a call to d-waytools would resolve any questions someone might have.
