HSS plate

[Jacob]

Where can I buy HSS plate in small pieces?
If I ask for plain spindle moulder blanks I get funny looks, lectures on safety and have to pay premium prices for branded objects.

Too small and have holes in which weakens them and limits the shape you can grind

Tool bits as a whole seem to be too narrow. I want 2"x3" minimum. Didn't know they were called tool bits though.

Hi Jacob,
I usually cut up an old planer knife, I have a slitting wheel in the bench grinder for this purpose and just slice off the amount i need.

Will you be using a jig for that? :wink:

No completely freehand. The secret is to keep offering it up to the original moulding whilst holding at as close as you can get to the actual cutting angle, and grinding accordingly.
