2X72 Belt Grinder

This is my DIY 2 X 72 Inch belt grinder.

Place the Metal like this….. and Weld it in to place Each Piece is 13 inches long Square tubing 2X2 And 4mm thick.

The Inner Pieces are 1 1/2 inch Square Tubing 3 Pieces One 17 inches long and two 15 inches long

the longest one goes on top it holds the Tracking Wheel. the other two go in the front of the grinder

top and bottom. one its for the Plate that holds the Two 2 inch wheels , the other one holds the Metal Plate that sits Flat. like a support Table.

Weld The Body to a Flat piece of metal.. Drill holes and place the whole thing on a thick base Wood in this case,

To Secure the Pieces that Go inside… You need to make handles. Drill holes on the metal use a big Nut.

Weld it in place and then you will be able to place the handles that hold the metal tubing in place so nothing moves or vibrates

On Top of the 17 inch pice make a tilting Tracking wheel holder. use a 4 inch Square tubing Cut it in a Angle

Make two holes on each side. and a bigger hole on front this is where the Wheel will go

secure the whole thing using Locking nuts.

Make sure it moves up and down .

to make the handles i use a 4 inch long piece of metal and then welded a big Bolt to it. Cut it to size and grind it.

a bit of Black paint and presto.. You will need 3 Handles.
