Two things were told to me today which i didnt believe and i wanted too see who was correct. 1. I ordered a M2 hss lathe tool blank from mcmaster. The shop tech said that it could not be ground and it could only be EDMed. I couldve sworn i have successfully ground these several times before. Can you grind M2 tool steel on a non-diamond wheel? 2. are endmills case hardened?  |

| 1. yes they can be ground quite easily. 2. not sure but it would make sense. Hard cutting edge and ductile core. Matt |
