    Great job. And if you are looking for more content ideas, don't be afraid to run with more ideas others have already built for RUclips, just show us how to make it better/cheaper/easier. My patent attorney told me in one of our very first conversations (yes, at one time I had a patent attorney) that patents are not designed exclusively to protect intellectual property. They are mostly to protect a specific design, but more to encourage improvement of an idea. With that in mind, there are some very clever ideas out there desperately in need of refinement. I'm glad I stumbled onto your channel... the projects are entertaining!

    Just picked up this table saw for $75. Top is a little rusty, but she's a one owner saw and is in otherwise great condition. Found it on FB marketplace. They were asking $125. I've been looking for this saw since watching this video ~2 weeks ago. Excited to make the belt sander. Thanks for taking the time to make the video!

    Great job with the belt grinder. Love that you used the remaining table saw parts. PLEASE for your safety (and for new content) make a vice for your drill press. It's only a matter of time before a drill bit grabs breaking through the backside of a part and makes a scrap metal helicopter that tears you to shreads. Be safe!

    Get yourself a gallon of muriatic acid and you can dip your zinc coated bolts and nuts in there before you weld them. It will take the coating off in a matter of seconds and leave the fasteners ready for welding.

    nicely done, i'm going down the same path. i have the same craftsman table saw and in the process of making a fabrication table and belt grinder out of it.
    I have the saw completely apart and table mostly done, one thing I noticed though is on mine the motor says that it is NOT reversable. so guess i'll do the belt sander with the motor on the other side. Question, do you have plans/measurements for your belt grinder build? I can noodle it out, but it's just wondering...

  • @rafaelallenblock
    @rafaelallenblock Год назад

    1] One of the best tips from the build is locating the handle at the center of gravity. I do that all the time
    2] Being right handed you spent time and effort reversing the motor rotation when you could have simply done the build with the motor mounted on the RIGHT HAND side of the belt. Sometimes being a lefty has its advantages, but the worst part of being left handed is how grinders rotate the 'wrong' direction for us south paws.

    Hey, it’s Jay, signing on and subscribing through my channel. Great job on the belt sander. I’m still looking for the old craftsman table saw! When I find one I definitely will not throw out the parts I strip off. Looks like it works really well. Do the drive wheels come in different shaft diameters? Is the craftsman a standard size?

    • @amcustomfab
      @amcustomfab  Год назад +1

      The drive wheel was a standard 5/8 shaft with key way and The idler pulleys were half inch ID on the bearings so I used half 13 bolts to fasten them to my framework.

      Explain what you mean by a switch.?

    • @middleway1885

      @AM Custom fab a light switch, old school dials/buttons, or connecting it via voice command... since many people are enjoying the "internet if things." How much would you charge for such a thing...
      Especially if you can have it auto-order the belts when you/they are running low...
      Making a 'subscription based service' would give a potential for repeat customers (Especially if it is made with the old school - Proudly 'Made in the U.S.A.' stamp of recognition; or any other country of origin.)
      Mhmmm, jobs for those that are into quality service and products... plus the other jobs it would create. (Transportation, logistics, research into better products, etc)
      Not to mention, the amount of wasted production time of products that aren't really in high demand, would be reduced, creating for more streamlined aspects for all that use and provide...
      Win-win...

    Cool build! I noticed you have an evolution saw. I've been eyeballing a dry saw for a while, how are you liking yours?
    cheers, thanks for sharing your build!

      Thank you very much. Found my old Craftsman table saw and am cleaning it up right now. Ordered the strip discs that you linked to. Appreciate your videos. @@amcustomfab

      @@amcustomfab What tooth count do you find most useful?

    • @amcustomfab
      @amcustomfab  11 месяцев назад

      Mostly use the 66 tooth. Seems to be the best all around. If you're cutting super thin material though, you just have to plunge a little slower so it doesn't grab hard .
