    Great job! very interesting.. Would like to see setup, initial settings to provide primary and secondary... More Quorn videos appreciated.. Thanks for sharing.. Subscribing
  • @screwcutter1
    Is that a MK3 Quorn ? also nice to see a Dore Westbury 👍 Subscribed .
  • It's a forgotten art.with thing being so replaceable these days it doesn't make since from a production perspective to regrind smaller endmills.its still very cool to see though
  • Have you guys started to work on a Coffee Grinder to go with your Espresso machines? Sharpening end-mills looks like it might be similar to making burr-sets…
  • @jessestrum
    hi is your finger guide for the end mills fixed to the base regards john
  • @Slugchucker
    Pity you didn't demo the cut at the end with the cutter you actually sharpened in the video.

    Enjoyable,particularly nice not to have to endure all the American waffle about being “welcome to the shop” watched several times.

    Just about 100% useless to the majority of us who don't have and probably will never own a shop-made Quorn tool and cutter grinder.
