Yes, but you've outed yourself as a coward, cowards speak only when they think their target is absent.

Welcome coward.

I'll leave you with that knowledge.

But be comforted, Admin will certainly delete my account now, and you can continue your cowardly character assassination in my absence..

You'll be happy to know I have left the forum. Too many hypocrites, fools and lunchbox legends for me.

Made this little bench grinder a few years back to mount on the bench. I already had a 6" and 4" but wanted a smaller unit for fine work. The grinder takes 762x25 mm belts. I chose this size because of belt grit availability 40 - 1000.

Originally it took two belts, but the motor didn't have enough power, so, I downgraded it to a single belt. If I ever come across a bigger, freebie motor, I'll add another belt.

The table is adjustable, it has tracking, wheels are Delrin and it has a diamond wheel on the end of the driven wheel for sharpening cutting bits for the lathe.

Doesn't get a lot of use, mostly the diamond wheel, but it comes in handy sometimes.

A lesson on how to hijack a post , well done. You're a legend - in your own mind at least.

Not offended, just surprised someone would make such a silly comment, takes all types I guess.

Bully for you. Mine does what I want it to, that's all that matters to me..

I made these ball turners a few years ago, just a project, had no real use for them, but they have come in handy a few times. I wanted one I could mount in the tool post and be used either in front of or behind the chuck. The first welded up one was a trial to see how well it worked, it worked extremely well, so, I made a few design changes and machined up the final. These were made on the lathe as I didn't have a mill at the time.
