CBN grinding wheels

[donpratt]

Has anyone purchased the CBN grinding wheels from Wood Turners Wonders? If so, how long have you had them and how do you like them? If you have experience with the wheels from other vendors, how do these compare? I sure like the idea of being able to get both the 80 and 180 grit wheels for not too much more than a single wheel from some of the other vendors, but if the quality isn't there, I'd rather just get one from someplace else.

I have CBN wheels on both of my grinders and got mine from here not quite the same as the ones you posted.
They are so nice you will love them, and very smooth and put very little heat in your tools.

Thanks, lorbay. That's the main other place I've been looking. I've heard good things about the D-Way wheels.

I'd also be interested in information on the wheels from Wood Turners Wonders.

In addition does anyone have an opinion on the radiused wheels vs the square?

Not sure I would like the radius ones. Since I have bought mine they have come out with the CBN down the side of the wheel and a lot of pro turners I have seen say they love them. I could see that being very useful on a square edge wheel.
