Description

I have the Eastwood tungsten grinder, but it only has two angles for two different tungsten sizes so I printed the Clough42 design.  I bought the set screws, drilled them, but with my Imperial drill bits the fit to the tungsten was not very good. 

So I thought, what do I have that would have the exact size holes for the tungsten?  Why the collets of course!  So I redesigned this to accept the 0.020" collets instead of the set screws.  Now you put your tungsten of any size into the correct collet and use this grinder for any of the four angles desired.  I removed the vacuum port as I use lanthanated (non radioactive) tungsten in my garage.  I increased the thickness so the holes are longer for less play in the angles to the grinding surface. 

Two versions are included – one for the original Dremel that Clough42 used and one for the Eastwood tungsten grinder.  https://www.eastwood.com/eastwood-tg1800-tungsten-grinder.html
