Hi Old Chief, If your Sears grind stone is directly driven by a
rubber spindle rubbing on it, I have one too and mine turns away from
me. I haven't ever found much use for it except for kitchen knives and
hatchets. Adjusting the tool rest isn't much help. Maybe I'm misusing
it, but I don't think it was ever popular among woodturners.
Turn to Safety, Arch
