I’m about to pull the trigger on my first lathe and tools, etc. I have the Rikon 8” slow speed, 1/2hp grinder and the Wolverine bases (both the platform for my hand tools) and the long arm for turning tools (that I don’t have yet). Which 1 wheel should I choose? I like the idea of the 1” flat on the sides so if I need to do chisel prep (hand tools), that makes it easier for what it’s worth... also, anything else that I need like washers, bushings, etc with the wheel.
