Hello everyone , so I have this recurring problem for quite some time now , when I don't have to make many blades at same time , I just go and hand sand it out with a hard backing.
But when you have to make a few , its pain in the but...
Whenever I am making scandi grinds , always about 2" from the ricasso I have the sanding dent , before you jump in here's my thoughts and two cents
It could be the backing issue, but whenever I free hand sand I don't have this problem...
It could be the grinding jig issue , but I tinckered with it , the same , got a second one , the same....
it could be the belt issue , but it happens with different belts
It could be of course my skill issue , but I've tried to change the technique , start grinding from different sides , tried different pressures , speed , the same happens.....
After all of that I'm stuck and I don't know how to fix this , maybe someone more experienced can give me any thoughts on how to fix this ?
Heres my steps,
Cubitron II 36 initial grind
Ht
3m trizact A300
3m trizact A 65
3m trizact A45 (here you can already see it , maybe it was there before but the grind was too ruff)
3m trizact A30 I think , whichever corresponds with 600 grit...
cork 400
cork 800 ( at this point that place changes color , not from overheating but turns slightly more metaly color
cork no grit
buffing wheel
I try to do less hand sanding and more grinding as its faster when you have to do more then a few, thats why I prefer not to ditch the jig.
any help is welcome.
