If you are referring to the race chain I did then that was all done with the Simington grinder.    Then the rest of the mods were done using a dremel.

No I did not modify the grinder in any way.    But I did play around the with the angles that the wheel is dressed at until I got what I wanted.   Don't ask what they are because I have no idea.    I used a grey greased wheel first to get the general shape of the cutter and then I did a final grind with a blue wheel.   The blue wheel seems to give a sharp angle in the corner of the tooth and I like the finish.   

Just saving some Simington swing arm square grinder pics I was sent.

Was wanting to see the adjustment 2 piece swing arm deal.

What's the story on the yellow spacers in the last 2 pictures?
