got a meat grinder but want some coarser/finer plates for it.

the plate with as some rust on it so assuming not stainless.

Gauge plate, I would think.

Note: the ones I have seen appear to have been individually surface-ground on some sort of rotary table. [so they might prove quite tricky to make]

Blanchard ground may be?

I've sharpened plates by lapping on a flat diamond plate, so if you just make a plate from gauge plate and lap it it may well work fine. I dodn't get the impression it was very hard.

Thanks, Andrew … I didn't know the name, but that looks like the [Catherine Wheel] effect.
