Spindle moulder cutter question

I had a look at the book, in a liabary of all places and I agree with Scrit. I grind by hand special cutters and limiters with two grinders and white grinding wheels. This takes some time and would not be economic for a working shop.

Scrit it would be nice to get a small profile grinder - I understand vieal (not sure if i have the name correct) from canada make one but not sure of the costs.

The cheap grinder is called a Viel Profile Grinder and they cost about $700 (I think that's US). There are problems with them, though. They aren't especially heavy and they don't have any form of cooling, although they will do a reasonable job for one-offs I find they aren't accurate enough for serious heavy duty work. Also they won't do limiters (althouigh if you're not trade that's less of an issue). I'll post a couple of pics tomorrow if you're interested
