hello all,
finally got my belt sander, 1x30 from harbor freight, and i started grinding last night, on a blank of O1... but i'm not really getting anywhere, so i need some starting help. the blank is 1.5" wide x 1/8" thick
i started at one of the corners, and started grinding towards the center of the blade, where the curve would be between belly and tip of knife, but it does not look like the right way to do it. this is my first, so maybe i am completely wrong, but it does not seem correct to me.
maybe i'm just impatient because it not going as fast as i like???
anyone got any pics or drawings of how to start these blanks out?
thanks for the help!
