MCRAIG-- You just keep pudling along. Looks to me like you have a working pard. MIKE is not going to let you go far wrong. You can get the flap-wheels in finer grit for the 4".
Just keep on keeping on and you will be there before you know it.
I would quench the tie-rod in oil first,(could be 5160 or 9260 if from a newer model) then if it does not harden to suit you, try hot water. Draw(temper) it pretty hard. I would not want the blade any harder than a middle 50s or so.
A little longer grind on th edge. not quite so abrupt an angle.
Looks Great to me.
Good luck.
