Most tooling used in the modern machine shop environment are of the
indexable carbide insert variety.. I'm not aware of any specific jigs
for grinding HSS lathe tools, and learned to do that all manually
during apprenticeship so loooong ago.. I have on occaision used a
compound-angle fixture (Delta) on a surface grinder or tool and cutter
grinder to produce lathe bits that have to be ground to specific
angles/dimensions..

I recently purchased their 2-in-1 combination package: a Baldor 712 grinder, a Darex M3 drill grinding fixture, a Grinder Table, and a steel plate and adapters for quick mounting of the M3 and GT. I've only used it for about 1 1/2 hours, so far, but I've been quite satisfied. Glendo's phones, addresses, and ads can be found in Home Shop Machinist. Stu Friedberg (stuart@cs.wisc.edu)
