Nice work Shawn  - if I had a decent compressor I`d buy one of these pencil grinders for my workshop and give it a go on my CNC.

Thanks Chris, your right about needing some decent air, even my bigger compressor is barely enough to run the grinder. I had another go today and I think my first results were compromised by a loose collet.  I tightened the collet up and got much better results this morning.
