I don't have the expertise you guys do but I have always found that a dressed wheel cuts cooler. To that end I frequently dress the wheels but I don't use the commercially available diamond dressers like D_W uses, as cheap as they are. I use a segment from a concrete/road saw blade. I asked nicely of a crew and was given a few blades, which is enough for many lifetimes of myself and friends. Cut the blade up with a cutoff wheel in an angle grinder, plasma cutter would be quicker, and dress the edges, then it is ready to impale in a quick handle. Ignore the little corner of granite countertop in the picture. Missed it when I cropped. There is about an 1/8th of an inch /3mm of diamond matrix on the edge of the blade. That segment is 8" / 200mm long so there are a lot in a blade.Pete[ATTACH=full]100779[/ATTACH]
