Dear Doc: I sell grinding wheels and frequently find myself pulling my hair out when recommending wheels to customers. One customer achieved great success with a resin-bond, 400-mesh diamond wheel when grinding ¾"-dia. carbide endmills. It performed like a "superwheel." I then took that same wheel to a customer who also grinds ¾" carbide endmills on the same machine model with the same coolant and it's a disaster. Why?
