Homemade Slow Speed Grinder

I turned a $15 drill press into a slow speed grinder for sharpening carbide. The wheel spins at 480 RPM.

I love the Blue Danube in the background. Reminds me of 2001 A Space Odyssey.

It works great. I'm still learning scraping , but having the blades sharp seems to help.
