I have been doing some restoration work with buffers recently. My tool of choice is the HF 8" buffer; which I know is a lil fast, but I found the link to the Grizzly buffer too late!
Question is that I have had some issues with minor chipping along the edge of some blades and even a toe chipped. A running theme seems to be that blades that are fully hollow or thin grinds are much more likely to chip? Is the issue technique, grind, tool used, or a combination of it all? I have had some success with thin grinds though, but always great outcome for half hollow and thicker. Thanks in advance for your replies.
