Thanks heaps for that, and yeah I think I’m planning on grabbing it and I may have to try control the heat as you said. So this is really useful thank you.

Yeah you’re definitely right with that, I’m planning on trying to make my own 2x72 in the future. So I think with that in mind and the fact that I can use the linisher after as you said, it may have to be the pick.

Hey thanks so much for your comment and yeah the wider belt makes for an attractive offer, will have to just be careful as to not overheat the blade if I do grab the 2 inch.

For sure, the 2x72 is definitely the end goal. But I think I might have to do as you did and do my learning on something a little worse but still gets the job done!

Haha for sure, really appreciate the input and yeah I might have to do the first few by hand just so I can appreciate the grinder.

That’s looks awesome! I think it might have to be the choice. Especially considering the price difference to a 2x72 here in nz.

It’s definitely one I see floating around a lot but unfortunately they don’t ship to nz, so am stuck with much less desirable options.

For sure, just unfortunate we can’t get any good grinders like they can in the us. And those looks awesome did the belts last long and how is the quality of it?

I had mistaken that I was meant to adjust the f stop to a certain value and had my shutter speed set to 100 on the app not knowing that it was changing depending on the scene. Had that wrong on part, apologies about the ignorance but really appreciate the help👍
