Upgrade your workshop setup with the Charnwood BG6 6" Bench Grinder, engineered specifically for woodturners and general DIYers who demand precision. Powered by a smooth 250w (0.3hp) quiet induction motor running at 2850rpm, this 12kg machine handles shaping, sharpening, and grinding tasks with ease. It features a dual-stone configuration: a 40mm wide fine white stone (60g) to prevent heat build-up on heat-sensitive High Speed Steel (HSS) tools, and a 20mm wide coarse grey stone (36g) for fast material removal on chipped chisels. Designed for a maximum continuous run time of 30 minutes, it sits securely on 4 rubber feet or can be bench-mounted via 2 mounting points.
Every detail is built for utility and safety, from the integral mains powered work light on a flexible shaft to the adjustable spark guards and tool rest. One eye shield even doubles as a 3 times magnifier for close-up work, while the built-in coolant tray and included wheel dressing tool keep your stones in prime condition.
