Surface Grinder Attachment For My BIG Belt Grinder

[@RedBeardOps]

Hot damn, this build was so good man! So many brilliant additions! The custom shaft, the pouring of the chuck and leveling of the magnet with epoxy... the feed mechanism that is spring loaded. Gosh darn, truly an excellent build! I'll be sharing this one for sure.

yep since the shop and YT, there is no sleeping/ Even when I give up and try to sleep I dream of what my next tool will be.

[@eric.is.online]

You and Make it Extreme share a common theme: you make the tools you need to make cooler projects which means you can make more tools leading to even cooler projects. It's awesome watching you get better and better.

[@lvd2001]

They are both excellent - but He is better than Make it Extreme - in my opinion

[@WiseCrafts]

This change just got better and more useful 👍👍

That's genius, very impressed by this awesomeness! That precision must be sooo nice to have

[@dalekify]

What precision?

[@AJ-ls2hu]

@@dalekify to be able adjust everything to suit the work piece and make blanks super flat using just a belt sander and nothing fancy

[@TheBvine]

Ingenious, your projects never disappoint. This one is the best yet IMHO

[@shaman5433]

Nice project. Small suggestion: You may want to think about replacing the magnet with an electro-magnet which is powered up when starting the grinder (or via switch). That way you easily can remove the workpiece and it also makes it easier to clean the metal-dust.

[@wheelchairboy65]

Black Beard, that is a great add-on to anybody's belt sander, you sir are very smart. One of these day's I'm going to make myself a belt sander, then make this attachment to go with it. There are so many uses for it, card scrapper's for wood working, homemade knife blade pitch & shim stock to name a few. Thanks for sharing with us, great job.

[@rbclima]

Well done! But maybe u should bulk up a little, that handle. It looks too thin. What do u think about changing the belt rotation direction? Perhaps it would give you some upward leverage

[@ototo194]

Sure would help! but if the workpiece slips off the magnet, you'll have a hot piece of metal shooting towards your face.

[@SuicideNeil]

The actual sanding belt? No, that would extremely dangerous- sending whatever you are grinding straight into your face if you slip ( along with all the sparks from grinding ). There is a good reason why they spin the direction they do normally.

[@jefflyon100]

I almost stopped watching when I saw the 3d printed chuck blocks. Then you dusted them and out came the sand casting form, f--ing awesome! Great job building the sander/grinding attachment! Here comes the jackass comment part about what i would have done different...I've been seeing this trend on a lot of these attachments, the use of one bearing block on a rail. I've even seen it done with the chrome plated round shafts with the open linear bearings, they are a bad choice all around though for this application. It's significantly less of an issue on your build compared to the round shafts but it's best practice to use 2 blocks per rail. The bearing blocks have clearance between the rail and balls, it varies a lot depending on the quality of the rails but its usually a few thousands. Using one bearing block you'll find the magnetic plate can rock up and down over its length. By using two rails you eliminated that issue accross the width (many only use one rail and one block, opens up many issues), adding two more bearing blocks will eliminate any rocking over its length and stop abnormal wear/failure potential. I custom build machinery for a living (industrial millwright/machine builder) and we use linear rails on almost every machine, sometimes multiple axis depending on the application. Most being heavy loads moving at high speeds. Regardless of load or speed though industry practice is to use 2 bearing blocks per rail. It makes for far more accurate movement and eliminates the high wear and failures you see when single bearing blocks are used. Its something to think about anyway if you start having issues holding tolerances after using it awhile. It's possible the bearings could last thousands of strokes before any issues are seen and the grinder might not see enough use to warrant any changes. Ok, jackass commenting done. I really do love the badass beltsander and the surface grinding attachment, the most original by far for flat/parallel grinding!

[@tinkeringaround6241]

Very impressive! I was surprised by the accuracy you got out of the hand built grinder. Nice job as always on the video
