Hello all,

I am new to the forums and to knife making in general, I suppose it is never too late to change that.

I'd like to ask if anyone has built a MaCo belt grinder. The site is at:

http://macoshopequip.com/index.html

It seems like well thought out machine and I am tinking about giving it a go. Since I am not very experienced at building and tinkering, I was wondering if anyone has done it before and could give some feedback on how complicated it was to build it.

Thank you.

Henrik

David, rob's parts make it a lot easier to build a grinder, don't they.

I really like that knie on your homepage. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
 
 
I'd like to thank Daniel for his generous offer. I am still in the process of collecting simple tools (you see I have never really did any garage work save a little maintenance on my motorcycle) and reading up on how simple things are done. Once I can ask the right questions, I'll be sure to take you up on it.


Cheers !
