    In this video I go over the build of my 2x72" belt grinder. This was built from the plans for the Gen 1 grinder by Jeremy Schmidt.

    I bought the plans and built the Jer Schmidt Gen 2 belt grinder but didn't really like the changes made to the tensioner. The previous version featured here looks like it might be a little better. It is an otherwise excellent design. Just an FYI for those considering it.
