DIYbanter - Tool Sharpening equipment?

Looking for advise here. There have been threads here about lathe tool
sharpening,
and I think Ive read them all. For 6 or 7 years.
I see Grizzly has an 8" wet grinder with a leather strop (?) wheel.

I've got, and use, an 8", high speed tool post grinder, and had been
thinking of a finer grit stone, but a good stone costs almost as much as
I paid for the whole grinder. The darn thing is just too fast and
unforgiving
for my level of experience. especially trying to eyeball grind a good
"fingernail"
grind (I think some here call it) Once in a while I hit it right, and then
the
turning is just so much fun it is hard to stop!

What do you think? I hope to coax SWMBO to stop by Bellingham
Grizzly showroom with me next week.
