Endmill sharpening jig - toglhot - 01-19-2017
[attachment=14170][attachment=14169][attachment=14168]
This is an endmill sharpening jig I made up. Just a simple aluminium clamp clamped in the tool post with a cheap Ozito grinder. Works quite well. Cutting angle and relief are adjusted by raising and lowering the grinder and the grinder is advanced by the cross slide. I use the chuck jaws and a small level for indexing, but that's not really necessary.

Thanks gents, it all comes down to camera angle. The right camera angle can make most things look good!

Somehow, I think it's a little more than that...
