Will Brouwers Posted March 20 Author Share Posted March 20 Just an update on how this grinder turned out. It is great! I had a friend who suggested the idea that led me to this idea! Just weld legs to the bottom! It kind of gives me Eiffel Tower vibes, and I really like it, and it works great! Definitely a great addition to the shop! The belt doesn’t track the greatest, but it works well enough, good enough for me to work around. In the second picture you can see the belt goes over a piece of angle iron that allows me to have something to push against. The next step is to weld another piece to that angle iron piece so all of the belt can be used, and to weld that screen below the grinder to the underside as a shelf.

Scott NC Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Are you thinking of putting a tool rest on there? It turned out nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Brouwers Posted March 23 Author Share Posted March 23 Yes! I forgot to mention that. I am thinking of using a piece of angle iron and bolting it to the arm sticking off the side of the big piece of angle in the first picture, that way I can tilt or remove it if I need.
