I have oppurtunity to by one of these for good price. My goal is to attach a vise to end of air spindle in locked position and use this as a surface grinder to flatten my knifes. I would only need about 2inches vertical and 10 inhes horizontal travel. Does this seem possible to you or am I wasting my time and should wait on a good deal for a surface grinder??
Hmm I heard Hardinge regular 5C collets have 2 tenths concentricity !
