How-To-Grind-Metal


Ok, there seems to be alot of confusion on how to grind metal, I am gonna try my best at helping everyone out some, I still have more to add, but this will be a start.

FIRST: THE TOOLS NEEDED.

:Sanders,

6" Dynabrade for my finish work, this does finer swirl marks in the metal, creating a more uniform appearance.
6" Dual Action sander, AKA,"THE KNUCKLE BUSTER" if you know the meaning of this, you have used one. used for medium sanding
8" Mac sander/grinder, used for initial knockdown and leveling.
