Several discussions here pointed out to me the importance of proper
bit
sharpening for lathe work.
I should start getting a proper bench grinder, but what would people
here
recommend as a grinder which would solely be used to sharpen bits??


There are half-speed grinders that run at, IIRC, 1800 RPM instead
of 3600-ish. They take a bit more time but lessen the chance of heat
damage. Woodturners use 'em.
