Do you think there is enough meat left on this cutter to get it ground?
I also need a new bottomplate but the screws are so badly worn there is no slot left to unscrew and would need to be drilled out hence I would probably just get a complete replacement bottomplate and soleplate.
Obviously money is the big issue here if I have to get the cutter reconditioned, as I believe they can cut away the old blades and weld replacements, but that sounds labour intensive and expensive.
Could probably stretch financially to a grind and new soleplate and bottomplate.
