Well you could take longer to make the toolplate than to do the job.

Thanks, yes i have a Jones & Shipman 540 surface grinder, FYI a toolpost grinder would be used to grind round stock, but i have a cylindrical grinder to do that.

Any grinding on a lathe is to be done under caution that grinding dust gets everywhere if your not careful, with serious consequences.
