(ET) mower blade sharpening

[tb <tbamc gbta net>]

My problem with using a bench grinder is that mine (6") is too small.  
There's no good blade rest to set the sharpening angle from and blades 
tend to hit the grinder housing.  The solution is to buy a better (bigger 
wheeled) grinder--just hasn't been a priority, yet.  ;-)

Could probably build a jig for the 4" grinder, but again--plenty of 
projects!

Thanks.
