At work we have a grindrite model st 2000, and I was wondering if anyone else uses the same machine. And if so does anyone know any settings for the stone grinder so that it lays down a chevron like pattern?

i work at a shop but im not familiar with a chevron pattern...explain...our stoner only does regular base structuring similar to factory tunes

pilots do it high
 
A chevron patter would look like this

Going down the ski to bleed the water out through the sides. I know that you can use the presets to make a diamond, or a straight pattern, but I wasnt sure how you can dress the stone to make a pattern like that. I would just keep dressing the stone again and again until I got the desired pattern, but I dont really want to go through a $2000 stone to find out.

I know what pattern you mean, but Im not familiar with that machine. We have a twister that can do that, and a bloody huge MAS BBG HAS 2000 (that is the model name, large, huh?) that tried to do it, but failed. On ours, we just selected the program we wanted, and tweaked it. They are robots though, not manual machines, if that counts.

In tractor pulls, a 'full pull' is the best you can get. Ahh, how sport mirrors life.
 
Yea, ive got experiance with a machine like that, a wintersteiger micro 71. for patterns on our machine, we basicly only have a simple cross pattern, a cross pattern to the left and right, and a linier patter. but, i have figured out how to make some crazy patterns on our machine, if you can ajust your mm/s of the dimond feed rate, speed it up and slow it down while you are dressing, this will make some nutty patterns. I have got close to a perfect chevron, and some really nice looking signwave patterns. Just takes a shit load of time and some serious stone cutting. Be prepare to cut your stone at least 20 times till you get something near what your looking for. I dont know if that made any sence, but i tried.

^^So do you have any exact sppeds that you set the stone to (ie. dress speed, stone speed, and feed speed?). ^And by structering the base you make it so that the ski can blled the water out in a controlled fashin, think of it like the Aquatred on tires, it keep you from hydroplaning out of control.

^^^ Different structures are meant to disperse the water in different ways, although your sphincter would have to be tighter than fort knox to notice the difference. Usually, in powder or slush, you want a coarse grind so you can move more water, groomed/hardpack not so much. I reckon wax makes more of a difference.

The thing is, even with all this crap, theres probably someone out there with the old channel groove on their straights thats going faster than you.

ya we use wintersteiger at my shop and it has a similar pattern

A homophobe once told me that skiing on parabolics is like getting a blowjob from a gay guy, it feels good until you look down.

 
Well, I have some spare time today, so maybe I'll try fuckin around and see what I can come up with.
