Dr. Jeffrey Badger, the host of Cutting Tool Engineering magazine's Grinding Doc Video Series, tells shops not to be timid when sticking a wheel. By sticking aggressively, shops can do more parts between wheel sticks, the Grinding Doc suggests in the 9th episode of the video series.

About the Grinding Doc Video Series: Thanks to his work as an independent grinding consultant and the author of the "Ask the Grinding Doc" column in Cutting Tool Engineering magazine, Dr. Jeffrey Badger routinely receives questions about grinding from shops all over the world. Through the magazine column and this video series, he provides shops with the insight and guidance they seek.
