There’s a lot to this that I don’t think we’re considering… Tooling, metrology, training. I would love to learn it and maybe make a few parts (1-2-3 blocks for example) but right now I just see a lot of people like me who want to learn but don’t have any applications.
Several belt grinder manufacturers make ‘surface grinding’ attachments for knife makers, that might handle most of what DMS needs. I can’t imagine there are a lot of parts that get made at DMS and need to be flat/square to tenths.
If y’all decide to buy it I will be excited to learn how to grind, but like Bob and Nick I’m not sure this is really the best use of the floor space.
