This is now finished but is currently sat on a shelf. I need to buy a drop box and some flexible 4 inch pipe and build a wall bracket. The main reason for not having it set up yet though is the extractor to power it. I keep looking on the bay but nothing has come at a reasonable price. I am...

Looks great What is the paint colour please? Mark

Great idea and execution Mark

Compound will cut an angle in two planes as opposed to just one. Mark

Lovely job you must be very pleased. I would echo Pauls comments. Are you able to see how the top is attached on the original table? Mark

I've checked the wheel with the dial. Front to back it runs out 0.22 mm, which is within the limits in the manual. Side to side it runs out 0.6mm, the limit is 0.5mm so is only just out. I'm therefore wondering whether to leave this side alone? The other side I need to measure further but...

Jim Yes the wheels wobble side to side as well as in and out. Having run it there is no vibration. The manual suggests some wobble in both planes is acceptable but I think it is a bit more than they allow. I will try readjusting the wheel on the shaft over the weekend. The grinder is an...

Jimi Actually, the wheel has no sort of insert. There is just a hole in the middle that fits over the shaft. No sort of lining, stone straight onto the spindle. It is a good fit and should not induce the wobble I see. The grinder and wheels are both creusen, so I thought I was getting...

I have just had one wheel off. A bit Heath Robinson to hold it but as far as I can measure the spindle runs out by 0.01mm or so. I would have thought that was ok. Put back together still same amount of wobble as before so all seated properly. So is the problem the hole in the middle of the...

If the bush is out, can the wheel be dressed or is it buy a replacement? Mark

Jimi That was meant as a serious question, though I can see why it would make you smile :oops: So whats the answer. I've not owned a grinder before mark

Eccentric bush, whats that? Mark

The second hand grinder arrived earlier. Turning the wheels by hand there is noticeable wobble looking from the front. When at full speed this disappears. Clearly I need to take the guards off and make sure the spindle is true. Assuming it is, is there a problem? Would the wheels need...

I wish my unisaw was as clean as that Mark

Dave, are you able to take a photo and post? Simple can be best sometimes. Anyone else built one like Steve M's? Can you post a pic of the finished rest or indeed the plans? Steve has kindly offered to talk it through on the phone but a pic paints a thousand words... Mark

Time to resurrect this thread. Been a busy few months and not had much workshop time. The ramp has had a number of layers or resin built up on it, now has a thick layer of plastic and doesnt reallt flex when pressed. You can see I have also cut the excess cylinder off that protruded beyond...

Steve Your idea sounds interesting, is there anywhere on line I con see the article that you are aware of as I'm struggling a bit to visualise it Jimi Also like your idea. Is there an advantage of doing narrow chisels on version1? Why not do them all on version2? I should probably make it...
