How are grinders made?

Lol I was just wondering how grinders are made. I mean, I suppose there is an industrial process which requires expensive machines, right? Especially metal grinders. So do the people who sell them pay people who own those machines or do they usually own them themselves?

that is an impossible question to answer!

but google is known to do the impossible why not try there?

Well, I actually did try google before that. Unfortunately I didn't find much about it. Just that there are different methods for different kinds of plastic, but I don't know which applies to grinders specifically.

Grinders are made on CNC (Computer Numeric Controlled) Milling machines. Place the proper sized billet in the unit, feed in the coordinates and let her rip.

i took metal shop in school, you are exactly right sir. CNC work sucked, it took so long to program coordinates for whatever you were cuttin. i made a real nice pipe on one of the lathes...sadly, it got taken away from me by my teacher though...

the dude that owns the local smoke shop gets a local machinist to make his grinders and then sells them for a 200% profit. i know this because we had the same machinist make some shit for us and when i went to pick it up i saw a shit load of grinders sittin there and i was askin him about them.

but more than likely thats what most of the smaller companies and sellers do, as for the larger companies...they proly make their own....fuck im stoned...
