That would work. but a grinding stone would last much longer.

I love my 30 buck craftsman grinder. has 2 wheels. i use the fine one for tungsten, and the other for w/e. no shipping, just a trip to sears.

Re: griding tungsten
 

Yes, that will work fine.

I purchased this for grinding my tungsten:

Works well, particularly after you have used it a while and a groove starts forming in the grinding stone.
I think I found it on sale for a tad over $20.

Both of my wheels on my 6" bench grinder are dedicated (left aluminum, right others). The 12" grinder is the one that does all the real grinding.

I have the standard one of these.

I bought a grinder and im not getting it how i want it. i was wondering have you noticed alot of improvment with the arc when using those kind of grinders. Because if it makes me better and puts down cleaner welds then its worth the 230

anyone notice the cheapy wheels leave some sorta resido on the tungsten? i noticed the wheel at my buddies welding shop makes my welder create a different arc than my hf cheapo wheel
