ROLL GRINDING MACHINE.
The correct way to grind a roll perfectly straight and round we have
demonstrated by actual experience is to have the grinding wheel
stationary and traverse the work before it, care being taken to have
all the parts of machine as rigid and free from jar or spring as is
possible.
