    Abstract: The subject invention provides a work support apparatus (20) for re-grinding a corner of a cutting insert (22). The work support apparatus (20) includes a base (24) pivotable between a horizontal position and an inclined position for re-grinding a positive and a negative cutting insert (22). A support lever (26) is mounted to the base (24) and is rotatable about a pivot axis (P). The support lever (26) supports a carrier post (30). An insert holder (32) positions the cutting insert (22) for re-grinding and is supported by the carrier post (30). The insert holder (32) is connected to the carrier post (30) by an adjustable device (36). The insert holder (32) is adjustable along a holder axis (H) perpendicular to the pivot axis (P). The insert holder (32) is adjustable for positioning the corner of the cutting insert (22) to be ground a pre-determined distance from the pivot axis (P) such that the same work support apparatus (20) may be used for grinding various radii into the cutting insert (22).
