Yep---a wheel that floats side to side is trouble. Fact is, when I was grinding the chip breaker on that RH tool, I slipped, partially destroying the cutting edge. Takes a steady hand, but most importantly, a wheel that runs dead true, on the periphery and the side.

As far as the slip goes, a sure sign I'm getting old. I used to handle chip breakers in stride. Not so easy anymore, it appears! :-)
