You did not steel anything, my friend. Don't apologize. We all learn by observation and some of us have excellent recall and memory. Plus if you are sharing your stuff, we are all learning and getting better results. Keep up the good work.

Gregory B. Howard Edmonds thank you!

Better than 99% of commercial belt grinders made by professional companies It's Simply wonderful

[@user-ks5ff]

Commercial companies can make things like this, but then you'll complain that they cost too much.

If he would charge 50$ for hour even then this grinder will cost 10k 🤣,

It's just magic!!!

[@rolandaguilera5965]

I don’t care who’s idea you used to make your belt grinder, I’ve watched a lot belt grinder videos and no one has made one to your specifications and using quality tools and procedures to make a outstanding tool. My hat off to you sir outstanding work and craftsmanship, the grinder will last for 200 yrs

[@stumcconnel]

I've seen quite a lot of belt grinders and belt grinder build videos, but this is, by a mile, the most beautiful I've ever seen. Outstanding work, sir.

I newer saw a man skilled like You! Respect, dude!

This is hands down the best belt grinder build video on KZbin, I’m pretty sure I’ve watched them all !!! Awesome job!!!

[@buildmotion1426]

Excellent craftsmanship! I’ve been machining for 30+ years and learned a few tricks from you. Thanks for sharing!!

thank you!

[@JDLarge]

Another project professionally completed, making the big companies jealous! It’s always a pleasure to be a fly on the wall of your workspace. Some people just suck, plain and simple. If there’s a way to take advantage they’ll find it, they’re damn Snakes! You just continue to keep it real brother, you’re doing it right. Thanks for sharing.

thank you!

The best home made belt grinder I've ever seen..Incredible fine finish..

[@st3althyone]

The level of engineering prowess this young man possesses is truly inspiring! You, my friend, are amazing! Your attention to detail, plus fit and finish are second to none. I’ve seen designs done on state of the art equipment that are don’t even approach what you’ve done in your place. It’s breathtaking watching you make something from raw steel to finish product!! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@bluehueful]

Very impressive work! Your skill for such a young man is amazing. Thank you for sharing your build I enjoyed watching and I hope you continue to build many more machines and share them as well

[@joepool60]

Absolutely Gorgeous! Cant believe you designed and built with precision and beauty! You must be a115 yr man, caught in a young mans body! Don't stop for anyone!

[@scottturcotte1860]

Great work and video. I wouldn't care the slightest bit if people accused you of copying someone else's design, the work, heart and soul and creativity you poured into this is all your own, even if you based it on a design that inspired you. Just your version of someone else's tried and true is equally unique and inspiring to me. The clever video clips that make a smile and show you don't take everything too excessively serious are just as fun as watching the build. Hope things are well for you in these interesting times.

[@EternitySoundDesign]

That was some serious fabrication art my friend. Love your work!

[@dragunov525]

I like you. You feel bad because people said you "stole" the idea from someone else. If someone puts a video up something they make and shows you how to do it, they most likely will not care what you do with the information they provide. In fact, if ever actually make a video of my own creations, I HOPE someone uses it and creates something of their own. Do not worry. Thank you for sharing what you share, whether it be your own design, or your own interpretation of someone else's design. Everything made by hand has its own characteristics, created by the maker of the item being made. Thank you for sharing, and I hope you continue to share for a long time. -Scott A.

This Is what i call a PERFECT VIDEO!!!! Perfect editing, Perfectly Made and Beautifully Machined! I mean it Looks Flawless, You did such an Amazing Job!!!! I Loved watching you machine all the parts. You are simply Brilliant and so Talented for such a Young Man! I Look at you and all i can Think is Man This Guy is going Somewhere in life! And he's going to be very Successful in Whatever he does, Your Skills and Determination are Truly Amazing! You're so Great at Everything you do, I dont think ive ever been so impressed by anyone else. I look up to you and hope someday i can have half the skills you do. Keep up the Amazing Work That you're so Good at! Take care and never stop Believing in yourself and never Stop Pursuing your Dreams and things you're passionate about, stay true to yourself and The Skys the limit brother! You really can do anything. P.S. dont worry what Rude jerks say on here, a lot of people use other peoples designs and theres nothing wrong with that! Theres always going to be Haters and negative people, and the reason they give you crap is because they are Jealous of your Maker Skills. and they put you down to try to make themselves feel better, even though theyre lowlives and will never be half the Man your are. Anyways sorry for the Book comment lol God bless you Brother.

all i need this morning is a cup of coffee and reading some nice Books ;) have a nice day bro!

[@daviddaddy]

@ Haha, Thanks you too bro.

[@aquilifergroup]

He’s right. People watch these videos to copy designs and make it for themselves. If you put your creation on KZbin someone will probably copy it. That’s fine, it’s why people put it on KZbin. My respect on your skills. Ignore the haters

Это совсем другая серия: как сделать себе оборудование, которое ты не можешь купить. Даже если бы такой (массивный, точный и надёжный) точильник существовал, то стоил бы неадекватно дорого. Назвать такой станок "хернёй" это надо быть полным идиотом.
