Wandering_R0gue Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Working on a sword blade, and I wanted to run some fuller. Since I have never done that before, I wasn't 100% sure how. I don't have any stages or fullering tools, so I opted for grinding in. However.... my option were an underpowered belt sander, or an angle grinder. I didn't want to OOPS and destroy a project with the angle grinder, so, I started with a dremel, cut a start groove, moved onto a stone grinding tip, then a sanding tip. Once the fuller was significantly large/straight/deep enough, I needed to find a way to expand it, but still maintain control.... so, I built a tool. It runs in a cordless drill chuck, and I can control/apply pressure with my off hand due to a grip I added. Allowed me to sand/grind the fuller better and maintain control, with minimal damage if I slipped. 20230621_190023.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Sells Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 one problem with using the wheel that way is the wheel changes shape as you grind, which means so does your fuller channel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
