Re: Tool grinding

Very likely. I see a couple of different grooving tools, at least one threading tool, maybe more, and a small boring bar. Different angles on some of the other tools would reveal more about them. What you have there is a good start at doing about any kind of work you might want to do. With your grandfather's hand on your shoulder, too! Wish my Grandpa had a lathe. I mighta got smarter sooner. ;) Bill in OKC William R. Meyers, MSgt, USAF(Ret.)

Interesting thread. My grandfather bought a SB 9” in the 30’s. He did jobs in his basement to supplement his income. I inherited the machine and all his ‘stuff’ from my dad. A long time ago I found a box of toolbits, every one was different. I asked my dad what was with all these bits. He said: “ oh those, those were for special jobs”. They all look hand done to me
