It’s obvious we have a thrifty group of guys at AAW so I thought I would try my hand at being thrifty! I opted for the diamond wheel with My new Tormek system (failure one at being thrifty), and it came with a small bottle of admixture that should be added to the water bath to prevent premature wheel breakdown. Knowing Tormek’s pricing system, there is most likely an economical alternated that can be used. Pardon me if this has been asked and answered many times before! Any suggestions?
 
Russ,

Also, you can reuse the water. That is one alternative for saving money.

Kind regards,
Rich
