Hi, I have a home built bench griner that runs between 1700 and 1800 RPMs. Is it possible to mount an angle grinder blade on it for cutting tool steel thanks
Leave your bench grinder alone and go pick up the angle grinder. It would be much safer to have your stock secured and you cutting with the grinder than the other way around.
I agree with what's written above.
I assume your home built grinder has tool rests to support the piece you are grinding. (there aren't many who grind free hand these days)
If you clamp your steel to the tool rest, and rig a lever to lift it into the cutting wheel, it will be very controllable.
