Rotary tool and grinding

[aym]

Will it be a bad idea to grind the leading edge of a wedge using a rotary tool? If so why? Don't want to pay 200 bucks for a belt grinder that ill only use once....

Surely you know someone that has one in their shed (belt sander I mean)?

Not when you can by as rotary tool with 500+ accessories for under fifty bucks.

funny enough I know no one that has a belt grinder...

I brought a rotary kit that came with about 70 piece... one of them must be usable for this experiment..

Give it a go!

Aym I have quite a few power tools, if you want to have a play around, you're welcome to.

NO WRNTY though :)

Hey Chappy, appreciate the offer, still got to head over and grab the grip...

I probably don't want to burn down your house or anything so will be giving it a go tomorrow, if I never post on this forum again is probably because I lost a finger in the process..

Ok tired it... Went through a stone tip in no time, does work just when u have a shaky hands like me... It was a semi new gc15 wedge, so a slip of the hands went over the wedge face and took off some of the black finish... Conclusion last resort only....
