I have a 25 year old delta 23-700 wet grinder which I have used for sharpening lathe tools over the years. I notice that there is some fittings that can be purchased for this machine that allow it to accept Tormek jigs. WIth the "new" exchange rate here in the US the Tormek is becoming prohibitively expensive, and I was wondering if my Delta will procure similar results. One issue I note in the Tormek literature is that one "re-grades" the wheel to a finer grit with a grader that they supply. I expect I cannot do this with my Delta, but then the whole idea seems rather unlikely-I cannot imagine how this works.
Can anyone who has operated both machines enlighten me here? Should I just stick with my delta?
Thanks, Fritz
