Hi, I'm a beginner knife maker and am in the process of making my belt grinder.
I'm using my bench grinder for the motor and am mounting the drive wheel on a tube like shaft attachment that screws into the grinder.
My question is, if I simply machine the 4" drive wheel out of steel and press fit it on the shaft with some epoxy, will it hold or am I doing something stupid and there might be a better way of doing it.
I would really appreciate some advice here.
Thank you.
P. S. I don't know how to upload pictures here from my drive. I've added the image drive links below.
