from 4x36 to 2x72

[rocketmann]

this is the grinder that I put together untill my kmg arrives. It is my 4x36 belt sander that I attached some angle iron and casters to. The angle is bolted to the sander using the holes that are for the work rest. It only took a few hours, I welded a few of the pieces but I guess it could all be done with bolts if you plan it correctly.

:thumbup: That is very innovative; would you mind posting the photos in the homemade grinder group, http://groups.msn.com/HomeorshopmadeGrinders (or I can do it, if it's alright with you.)?
