none magnetic base?
hi all,
this situation is on a surface grinder. sometimes i get this assingments, where i have a 3 step type tooling part. 1st step is @ .5000 second step at 1.0000 and the 3rd step @2.0000 and they have to be within .0005 and this involves side wheeling each step also, but i need this for the step part of it. have you, or do you know of a none mag base i can attach my test indicator to, and slide it back and forth from the .500 gauge block and then onto the part for accuracy while the mag on chuck is it on? or maybe how do i go about making one of something that is non magnetic thanks all |

Use a mag base with the magnet turned off. For better accuracy use a height
gauge.

hi all i cannot release the magnet on the chuck, this is a surface grinder. i want to be able to move my test indicator back and forth from the gauge block and the tooling im trying to measure. having a mag base on off , the chuck on the surface grinder will suck it down cause its on. any other suggestions any material maybe i can glue onto the base that is not/or will get magnitized??while the chuck is on. thanks all Rich Goldner Wrote: Use a mag base with the magnet turned off.

With the mag base turned on the mild steel side will stick to the mag base and the brass side will happily slide on an energised mag chuck. jim |

GWE Every time the spindle is moved down for a grind you lose your reference. original poster stated he was using a gage block to compare the heights , so clamping to the wheel guard is quite workable |
