As everyone here knows, I occasionally make hardened platens and water cooled platen chillers for the KMG grinder. This all started a couple years ago when I made some for my own KMG and added a few extras for you folks. Hundreds of platens later it is obvious there had been a real need for these things and I'm glad I made them. What started out as me trying to do something nice for you folks turned into something pretty nice for me too. It turned into a not-insignificant amount of work for my shop and I appreciate it. :thumbup:
I've received requests for parts for other grinders from time to time, but not enough to justify a production run. I'm sure the Burr Kings and Square Wheels etc are great grinders but I only get one or two requests for them a year. But I've had about a dozen requests for the TW-90 already this year. So I'm trying to decide if I should do a run of water cooled platen chillers and hardened flat and radius platens for the TW-90. So, addressing this group as a whole, is this something you folks want me to build?
