Another nice example of smart thinking well presented. I very well may adopt this for my own grinder.
As a side note this grinder largely copies well known American makes right down to the Square or compound as you call it. So the slightly useless square can't really be blamed on the Chinese.
You might want to consider expanding upon this article a bit and focus it on use of the grinder. Make it a living article that expands as you come up with new fixtures and tools.
Finally you should consider looking for a wheel to grind conventional tool steel. I know they can be found but it isn't easy.
