The problem is that the strips have fairly complex profile (these are
accordion reeds)- so I need to be able to have a fairly precise down
feed method, removing may be 0.0005 in a pass and having predictability
to it - as in knowing when to stop w/o having to mike the strips
after every pass.


The grinding area can literally be 1"x1".


The dremmel thing would almost work, if only the spindle was a bit
better, better grind wheels were available and I had a downfeed control
method
