Hope this isn't considered spam!!

Ahh, I took all that stuff off the internet in a fit one day Sweany. Still haven't built a new one but Kit's sending me a cd to help me with it so I hope to get one going soon. Got some nice knives in the works and in my mind that are just gonna have to get posted online! :)
 
if you really like spam try this. Fry spam in a pan, and crack an egg on top of it. Salt and pepper to taste, and lay over a slice or two of cheese. Put the works on toast and eat slowly.

Really good with beer and pickled eggs.

You guys ever tried mixing corned beef hash in with scrambled eggs while they're cooking? My brother introduced me to that dish on a camping trip. Man is it good!

That pulley wheel gives me an idea:

That pulley wheel Limits what you can do with the sanding belt while the disc while is attached.
Monster grinding contact wheels are becoming more popular right?

Why not combine the two concepts?
Have a ten inch or whatever size wheel with the standard rubber tire mounted on a rim that extends back towards the hub while parallel to the axis. On the empty side of the wheel, attach the disk. A drum contact wheel of sorts.
Construction:
If I am guessing right how that wheel was made (in two pieces), here are the extra steps: Braze or weld, using extra thick fillets and beads, two semicirlular strips the width of the grinding belt to the rim of the disk. (two joins instead of one in order to keep it balanced) Reassemble to hub and use lathe to remove excess filet/bead inside rim. Retool lathe and bevel disk if needed. Retool lathe and turn the wide brim circumfrence to the final diameter which fits standard contact tire.
If centered properly while on lathe and the joins were diametrically opposite to begin with, it will be balanced when finished.
 
That's just an attachment you put on the Wilton when you want to use the disc. When you need to do regular grinding you put the contact wheel back on.
