    Some improvements. I'll update this section until its finally "done".

    1. Another option for the handle.

    2. Screw that locks the angle grinder to the stand so that it doesn't move sideways when tightening screw is loose. Good when using as a chop saw. It also secures straight cuts if tightening screw opens itself.

    3. Quick tightening action with simple thump screw, made from M12 nut and piece of flat bar.

    Down its loose. Up, its tightened.

    4. Bigger guard for safer use.

    5. add supports that guides angle grinder to the same line with the base, faster and easier assembly.

    6. Optional support wheel, helps with wood carving and grinding.

    Will be continued with the attachments for grinding and pipe cutting... Also im waiting my wood cutting blades, Click image for larger version.

    Then this will work as a circular saw too.

    Stay tuned!
