The end mill sharpening I did to the 60-degree dovetail cutter is not a perfect work, there are some inaccuracies but my goal was to retrieve the cutter that didn't cut anymore and to experience this procedure by testing it with my small indexing system for lathe. Watch the video    • Small Indexing system for lathe  
I already had available the grinding wheel I used, it was born for another job. If I had to buy it I would have been oriented on an angled grinding wheel to better enter in between the blades.
Many people compared grinding to sharpening, they are both "abrasive" machining, but sharpening is definitely another job!! (I work on grinding machines)
So my apologies to the sharp masters for this not perfect result! :-)
