DEWALT 8" DIY Bench Grinder to Belt Sander 2x42 Homemade

[@somebody655]

I purchased a used one as the piece is a bit pricey, but the machine kzbin.infoUgkxG6fbm3cHBd7CNTjk5D-dwYe9c9tCB9ZN has surpassed my expectations. We sand small parts by hand often, sized around 1"x1/2," and specifically look for a piece that's designed to be vertical. The motor has plenty of torque and great speed settings. The only inconvenience I had is that the disk measures 5" where we trim 6" stick-and-sand disks down easily by mounting it then cutting with a box cutter.

In a small shop like that, it’s not practical because you always moving it. He should attach it to a plate the size of a mat, so that he is standing on the plate when using the grinder. Then attach wheels to the plate that only engage when he tilts it to move it around the shop.

Dang. Cheaper almost to buy a belt sander than buy these pulleys.
