Hmmmm ......... at tech we were always told never to grind cast iron - cold
chisel or file only. Actually, there is a reason, but I'd have to go back
thru' the old books to find it

turning or milling cast iron and never have. Has anybody got any ideas on
why this is.I think I was told that it would cause hard spots in the iron..
You always use coolant when grinding cast iron or you will end up with burn
