Record RPBG6
This Record 6" grinder has a fine white wheel which is extra wide (40mm). Ideal for skew chisels but primarily intended for cabinet makers tools such as plane irons. Woodturners would need to fit a harder fine wheel on the right for gouges and other curved blades because the white wheel would go out of shape if used for frequent grinding of gouges.
This is a nice quality machine with a five year guarantee. Weight 9 kilo.
Our 150 x 25mm microcrystalline wheel would perform well on this machine and do a great job on your HSS turning tools. We recommend that you replace at least one grindstone with a microcrystalline wheel then your grinder will be able to sharpen just about every type of blade including carbon steel chisels and turning tools which require a cool cutting wheel. Fitting and balancing is free of charge if you order both together.
