    Cool, hope it doesn't catch fire!
    If you will a good edge win,
    temper thick and then grind thin.

    I bet if you put a ceramic glass liner on that platen, you would NOT have a problem with that grinder at all,

    Re: Vertical Linisher

    How cool is that. You did an absolutely fantastic job. I just spent about 1500$ on a grinder, and I bet yours will run smoother and quieter. I agree the platen should get a glass face, but otherwise a thumbs up from me! Watch for splinters and termites..

    WELL DONE!

    Re: Vertical Linisher

    Quality woodturning!The finish may be too good as belts will be more inclined to wander on a shiny surface.Cannot see clearly from picture but idler pulley should have a slight crown to aid belt tracking.

    Cool....

    You know as daft as it sounds I wonder if some of the parts you have made there from wood could be used as patterns for metal castings... Nicely done

    Very impressive... I like that.
