The new grinder is in the works and I'm looking to get some small wheels(Bader Style) so it's all set to go when it arrives. Where is the best place to buy them? Any and all suggestions appreciated.

Don't think US Knifemakers sells Bader supplies. i just bought 5 small wheels for my TW-90 from Pop's. When package arrived i noticed he gave me a nice discoount!! Can't beat POP'S!

jll346, thanks for replying. The small wheels that the KMG uses are different than the ones the TW90 uses? When I was watching Travis's video the other day (for the 1000th time) it didn't look like the style of small wheels that have the bearings on the outside, it just looked like it had a post sticking out of each end. I went to Baders website and they show three different styles of small wheels. HTBJ, 30MT and 30 ML. It also shows tapered and lock-in. I'm really confused. I would like to have some small wheels here when the TW90 arrives, but I don't want to get the wrong ones.

I haven't ordered from Pops yet, but I'm planning on getting some belts from him, so I will just order some small wheels right away too.
Thanks for any help.
 
The small wheels are the same as the Bader BIII. I use them because the bearings aren't in the way. It's very important when using the small wheels to; fuller, surface grind, trace, etc. I haven't used any sunray stuff, but I'll have to look into it, always lookin for cool new stuff.
