[TheForge] Source for Non-Standard Grinding wheels

[Mike Sweany]

sickle wheels do have a v shape profile, we had one that was hand held and one on a bench, the hand held was by far easier to run. on the sickle bar.
Any Farm store should have one of these boogers.

hand cranked grinders made for sharpening horse drawn mowers used this 
size, though many of those seemed to be thicker in the center, tapering 
to the edges. Almost a hundred years later, it hard to tell a wear 
pattern from manufacturers intent. I have the original stone, but it 
is very unevenly worn. Truing it would not leave enough stone to be 
worth it.
