A grindstone is a round rough stone mounted on an axle that is used to polish or sharpen metal tools. Nowadays they are often driven by an electric motor.

A grindstone is a round stone wheel for sharpening or shaping tools by rubbing them against it. The phrase "putting one's nose to the grindstone" means working hard and diligently towards a goal.
