    Love seeing this. As a manager of small to large machine shops for the last 30 years I have had probably millions of blades and tools sharpened. Last Shop had an Anca tool grinder to reprofile tools for our aggressive high speed machining we did. managing tool life and knowing when cutters would die we were able to get 4 custom grinds on the inner face before they were used up.

    I've been a Diablo user for quite a while, figuring that they were good enough for the price. After this video, I went on Taylor Toolworks to check out the CMT blades. Found that the ITK Orange were on sale, so took the plunge ordering the 24, 42 & 60 tooth blades. Man, what a difference. Quality is evident down to the packaging. Looking forward to using them more.
    I really appreciate all of the info you present and tool reviews. I've bought several from you and your recommendations. - Chris

      Hi Sandy. We can handle your sharpening if you are willing to send it. USPS flat rate packages are an economical way to send out here. You just have to be careful to package them so they don't move around in the box or touch the other blades. We will pay return shipping on 4 or more sawblades.

      I was waiting for someone to notice that. I have been meaning to try to replace it, but the connections from the line generator are very specific and newer monitors will not work. These inspection machines have not been made in a number of years. They were made by a company called California Cedar Products. I found a patent dated 2002 for the machine, so maybe not quite as old as you might think. One of these days when the CRT monitor dies I will be forced to figure it out. Until then I will just have to live with it.

    Re Freud - I think there is some miscommunication here - the Freud diablo stuff I see sold in the USA is not their top of the line industrial blades... So I don't think the comparison is fair. Top notch industrial Freud blades in Europe cost much more than the diablo stuff.
    Re nanometer accuracy....I think you went a little overboard there. 1 Nm is a bit less than 10 atoms of iron/cobalt/magnesium etc.... No spinning industrial Cutting machine can be that accurate

    • @Myopicvisions
      @Myopicvisions 3 года назад +10

      Speaking from experience, what drove saw sharpeners out of business was the drastic reduction in price of blades off all types. My dad sharpened saws for most of my life growing up, and it just became cheaper to buy a new carbide blade than have him sharpen, or even replace the teeth. Specialty tools used in commercial settings were often sharpened in their own shops. Almost every customer was either a construction firm, or a construction worker. Even hand saws, which he had machines to re-tooth, sharpen, and set, couldn't be sharpened anymore because of induction hardening. He eventually realized that it was costing him.more money to keep the business going, and sold all but one of his bench grinders.

      Because that's not feasible in our profession (furniture making). If you're doing it right you're using multiple blades per project and maybe making just a few cuts. This isn't construction or handyman work we're talking about. The right blades makes a difference in the amount of labor you do so therfore maintaining high quality blades actually saves money. PLUS! If you watch my previous video I break down how much more expensive cheap blades. They're a lot less cost effective than high quality blades.

      Well I can understand that train of thought as here in Md I have yet to see any sharpening service do a top notch job. They take off too much material and they all seem to think it's necessary to sharpen the teeth on the outside not just the face. It wears down a blade faster so they can sell you another one you see. A scam in my book.
