Currently, Northern Tool + Equipment does not offer an 8" wheel to fit this grinder. You would be able to pick one up locally. It needs to have a 5/8" arbor.
I need to know if this grinder can be used to sharpen my tools like lawn mower blades and shovels and pruning tools? really what is a grinder used for other than grinding and sharpening?
