do you grind edge up or edge down?
Yes the 4.5" wheel creates a half hollow on a 7/8 blank and the smaller wheel removes material near the spine and creates the belly. I used to blend those two radii to get rid of the grind line near the edge, but then I decided that I should emphasize it.

I grind edge up.
