Should we try to get this? (Lee Tool Grinder)

If we created a tool grinding room say with woodshop and their grinder. But I’m not sure the juice is worth the squeeze.

It did not last long. The seller got blasted with hundreds of messages of people wanting it either to use for its intended purpose or for scrap metal.

I lucked out and made the drive to pick it up Monday afternoon. Glad I have a liftgate because it is extremely heavy and has few good places to grab that does not want to move. Probably about 500 pounds. Will need to add a VFD to convert 240v single phase into three phase power. Hope to get it unloaded and into my workshop either later tonight or tomorrow afternoon. This was a KO Lee B300 with the universal grinding head and collet holder. The one I already have at home is a 120v single phase KO Lee A600 but without any fixturing or other tooling. Debating on if I might sell it once the B300 is operational or keep both and leave the B300 setup for sharpening endmills and drills and the A600 setup with a vice or magnetic chuck for doing surface grinding.

Say, ole buddy, ole pal, old friend…

… If I wanted to grind a tool, what kind of arrangement could we make :wink:

May be a bit but hopefully be end of the year I will have it cleaned up and a VFD installed so I can run it since it is 3-phase 220.
