    2x72 Belt Grinder - Cornerstone tool for every metalworking shop (Video)

    Hey folks, just came across this site and am all about the homemade tools! Can't believe I didn't know about this site earlier. I just put a video together of my 2x72 belt grinder that I made a while back, please check it out:



    If you don't have one of these gracing the benches of your metalworking shop, you are missing out. It's been a fantastic addition to my shop, and I wouldn't be without it now!

    Nice man,,,I'm about to start on mine this weekend. I never knew why people pay so much money to but these when they are easily made at home for a fraction of the price

    For anyone thinking about going down the road of building their own version of this, are there any specific questions out there? Thinking about doing a followup video to this one at some point, and would like to make it as useful and helpful as possible.

    Do you have "grinding" belts or just sanding belts?
