Hi all, having added an 8” wire wheel to my new (ancient) Wolf grinder, I’m not sure what to do about the guards for it.
1) Many high and low cost systems with wire wheels have guards around the wheel and a front platform identical to the one for the grinding wheels.
2) Some examples have large boxes around them to catch the rubbish, and not have any small gaps that objects and fingers could get caught in.
3) Some do away with guards all together to remove any chance of pinch-points.
Any thoughts on best practice? I’m between putting the the guards and platform back, or building a box for if.
All thoughts welcome!
