He Built A Little Bench Using A Washing Machine Motor
 ✖  |
David Novotny, Fargo, N. Dak: "I built a nice little bench grinder using a two-speed Westinghouse washing machine motor, some 2 by 12s, an old Chevy fan belt, a couple of pulleys, and a chuck from an old drill. The motor belt-drives the chuck, which is mounted right in front of me as I sit on a bench. I use my wire brushes and grind stones for my hand drill and clamp them in the chuck. The chuck is at just the right height when I'm sitting on the bench. I have a lot of hand drill accessories that work well. I put a long cord on the grinder so I can move the grinder around my shop and still reach an electrical outlet. I also put an outlet on the bench so I can plug in other things like lights or saws. I plan to mount a guard on the grinder so I don't get my fingers caught in the belt."
