I was thinking of making one out of a Dremel!
I've had to turn down goddamm dowel pins, so I collet-ed up the pins, and
just held the Dremel by hand!! Worked! At least well enough...

A spin fixture on a surface grinder is probably a better method for the ends
of short hard pieces.

The finish from these grinders can be pretty good. My buddy finishes long
shafts w/ a Dumore
They are a pita, tho, and the grit/dust is a problem. Proly wouldn't hurt
to blanket the ways/machine if using one for extended periods.

What is one or does it do i think my atlas lathe came with one. And my
newbie to the machining side doesnt really get the point of it currently

there is an electric motor attached ot a belt drive attached to an arbor
that ends in a small grinding attachment i assume this is essentially a
toolpost grinder?

But the application of one is still a bit of a mystery to me and i could
stand to be pointed in the right direction.
