  • The other 2x72" belt grinder I made four years back has been the most used tool in my workshop ever since. So I decided to make a bigger one that can run belts up to 160" and features swappable arms for different wheels and attachments. The only parts I bought new for this build are the 12" contact wheel, pedal switch and concrete, all steel found at the scrap yard. Of course I also order custom sized belts (50x3500) in variuos grits, the 320grit one you see at the end I glued myself with ca and cloth and ended up breaking within the first 5min of use.
    Design loosely inspired by "Bader Space Saver" grinder I have seen used by Matt and Ilya over @ThatWorks . What looks like a great belt grinder that is still being sold here: www.stephenbader.com/product/b...

    Most people can follow simple assembly instructions, others can 'see' simple end goals and the best paths on how to get there...you however, are the true artist who can see the complicated and the intricate path it takes to get there. Fabulous work and video...

    It's amazing how easy it looks when a real craftsman works. Great work. Great grinder.

    Hell yea! That’s not bad at all. If you want to completely eliminate the rocking then weld the old wheel base to a plate of rectangular steel to give a bigger foot print. Well done!

    Every few minutes I'd go "WTF is he even doing?" yet it all comes together at the end.

    I made a 1" x 30 " sander out of wood scraps and vacuum cleaner motor bearings and a bicycle front hub, a wide skateboard wheel drive pulley and a thin skateboard wheel for the idler pulley. Working on a dust collector system.

      I only disliked because he didn't make his own drill bits that he used on the cast aluminum he made which went on the tracking arms he made for the belt sander he made.
