Hi Gene, I have used Calibre process a LOT of ebooks and the only books it has failed on are scanned pdfs, ones with DRM and occasional corrupted files. It most definitely will open epub and I generally use it to convert whatever format the book comes in to epub. I have to admit it's

Re: [Emc-users] CBN wheels.

I have very limited experience with CBN wheels so this is more of a question than comment. I noticed if the grinding process is sparking while grinding the wheel seems to not wear at all but if the process is not sparking the wheel wears rapidly. Can anyone comment? Thanks Stuart On Jan 8, 2018

Re: [Emc-users] CBN wheels.

One thing I have noticed is important with CBN wheels is that there is little or no run-out on the wheel when mounted, because there is no real depth to the coating, so dressing appears to be somewhat risky. I have seen several reports of wheels supplied with considerable run-out when they are

Re: [Emc-users] CBN wheels.

I've always been curious about these grinding wheels. Are these dressed like normal aluminum oxide wheels? Because sometime ago I read about grinding machines prepared for CBN wheels. The Landis ones I know have wheel dressers for CBN and the only difference I really noticed is that the dresser

Re: [Emc-users] CBN wheels.

Gene, check out Shars tools CBN wheels. They are decent quality and as of a few years ago at least were very economical. I have not traded with them since they were a small operation without much of an online presence, but they were very good people to deal with. www.shars.com Happy new year!

[Emc-users] CBN wheels.

Greetings all; I appear to be learning that one can't use diamond on an HSS tool, as I've managed to kill a 1200 grit diamond faced 6" disk. But has anyone found a source of CBN wheels that don't start at $200 and go on up to triple digit prices? Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes
