Quoted text begins.Could you tell me what kind of grinding wheel you used
to finish the tip???
End of quote.


Hi Bob,

I used a silicon carbide(green) grinding wheel 220grit on the carbide tip.
I invite any of the old hands to comment, but, that's what I have so that's
what I use. Just keep it cool with a dipping can of water.

I'm sure there is lot's of advice out there for sharpening carbide tipped
chisels. These are also the first one's that I have so I'm all ears.
Hopefully someone else will have some more info.

Here's to keeping your chisels sharp

John
