Just placed my order... Can't wait to get a better grinder and they don't get any better than this. What a well thought out machine. Thanks Travis!

[@davidendres7808]

Great idea and thank you for talking through what you are doing love it

I’m going to try this table setup off the drive wheel using 8”solid contact wheel with keyway

What a smartly designed grinding machine, everything needed to get to work and only limited by imagination and maybe money 💰! Great job.

Damn, that's one helluva nice machine! 5 years late :( What's your daily caloric intake while on a maintenance diet? 5'10" about 185-ish? BF% around 10%? I used to be into bodybuilding until my shoulders finally gave out, thus the interest:)

Genius!

Dude, you're jacked. How do I get arms that big?

Thats the best sand grinder I've ever seen what are you asking for one of them. I would love to own one of yours. They are so cool. I don't know if I'll be around that much longer to afford a belt grinder. Since I've been fighting for my life since the doctor put a needle in my back and gave me a staff Infection in 2017 I had two major surgerys and got billed for over a one million dollars, so I don't think I could ever get a belt grinder or one like yours I'm just wondering what it would cost for one like yours. I first saw your grinder on Forge in Fire and I was like wow that can do pretty much everything you need to grind a knife. Since I'm stuck at home now I set up a little shop in my basement where I'm going to try and make some knifes to help me pay off some of my bill. And one thing I need is a grinder. Everyone tells me to sue the Doctors that did this to me and I thought about it long and hard. Accidents happen and I can't go around sueing the doctor over a accident. Things just happen I'm sorry for rumbling on. Maybe we could work something out for one. Thanks

It looks like you prefer the grinder to be a bit low when you grind compared to others. Can you give us your opinion on tool height? I'm in the process of building my bench and grinder mount. My tools will be just below my nipple line (approximately) and I'm thinking I may want to adjust the mount height so that the tools (platen, contact wheels) are at just above my belly button.

hello, nice car, which motor mounts 220 / or 380v, since it has an inverter?

The tool rest looks awesome and I love the doubler plates you had a video on earlier. Do you sell the doubler plates as an option for the grinder and are there different sizes?

[@castledomeknives9395]

Ur a freaking genius Travis...@

[@davidbrown2806]

Interesting ........ watching this years Forged in Fire, it appears that they changed all their belt grinders to TW-90's. I think they used to be Baders prior to that.

[@rcarvalhocutelariaartesana7087]

Awesome machine! Can it be shipped overseas??

[@philipholm5814]

I want one so bad

[@jaysanders7472]

[@ngamokai]

Matthew King yep communication is bad very bad try northridge grinders!

[@CarlosDelaoGunEngraver]

@@castledomeknives9395 it does not matter if its a one man operation on mars or a multi billion dollar operation, communication is key, I paid him 5600 for all bells and whistles then not to hear from him for 3 to 4 months, not even an update on my purchase, then a 35 dollar magnet was not included, 35 dollars really, I told him about it only to be second guessed, if I'm paying close to six thousand dollars, do you really think I want to take him for 35, the way I do business I would have apologized to the client and sent the 35 dollar magnets. I have all emails and text messages that went largely unanswered as proof. I also bought a Northridge grinder, George answered all my calls and questions a great machine as this one is cant talk bad about the machine, but the Northridge is half the price.

@@CarlosDelaoGunEngraver ooh...i did not know about your purchase and lack of communication For Several Months. You are right.. communication is key!
