It is great that you sold out of Grinders so fast...How about leaving the prices listed so those of us that missed the initial drop can plan and budget?
Just about to say this also ....hard to maintain interest when i cant budget for something in the future or know how much to save up....i know origin blade maker is a solid grinder made in the usa and if these grinders cant match OBM pricing i will just go with them
@@liamfeely2806 honestly kits are going for 550 to 700 all over right now you can order a plug and play origin blade maker for 759$ if you add the 20$ tool rest not counting shipping and that is a solid machine single speed but i know lots of people put a router speed controller on them and get some variability or even just step pulleys with a belt....the options for cheap solid grinders are endless
Hey, Thanks for the video. I have not intention of steeling your design. I just wanted to say, I appreciate your constant giving to your viewer, despite the lack of respect they exhibit in return. I appreciate all your efforts.
Great tutorial. One thing I would suggest is you guys might use some bag on a roll and a heat sealer instead of using Ziploc bags. Will save you time, but also look a little more professional. They come with white on one side and clear on the other also for easy labeling. Just a suggestion, but great looking products, and keep up the good work.
I was thinking the same thing but thought maybe they just threw the hardware in zips to make it easier for the video. Not sure tho, haven't bought one yet.
Love the content! Love how you all became entrepreneurs and have created yourselves! You all have some learning to do, don’t let the fools bring you all down! It’s a learning system and you’ll get it right, just stay focused and stay moving forward!
Will, Very nice presentation. Nice job of assembly. This appears to be a simple machine to operate, assemble and has been very versitile in use. You should mention the cost of this kip and perhaps estimated shipping costs. How about obtaining belts for it as well. Is the first one included? You have done a wonderful Job, WIll. Long last your partnership with Alex
Sebula21 if I recal correctly; most Motors on belt grinders are 3 phase, which is why there is a need for the VFD. It’s a speed controller but it also converts the power so you can run the motors on single phase
Nice grinder, but oh ghod, first half of video was verdigris videography. The switching back and forth to the overhead shot was seasick time. Looks like a well laid out and well machined kit nevertheless.
So, everything is either sold out, or coming soon on the website, but I don't see how much they cost. I'd like to know if they're going to be in my price range or if I'm going to have to go with something else for now. I'm really wanting to upgrade from my little 1x30 harbor freight sander soon and I really want to support you guys. Just need to know if it's going to be something I can swing when the store is stocked back up?
I think im just going with an origin blade maker the basic grinder single speed is 759$ with the added tool rest and easily upgraded to a vfd later ....759$ no screwing around with assembly just yank it out of the box add a belt and plug it in to a 110 outlet and go
Have you watched this channel? Yes they will be offering a warranty. Look at what happened with the lathe. Why would you think they would be that stupid?
@@timfrye9147 I have watched all the videos on both channels, and both Instagram accounts. Please show me where it STATES that the grinders will be sold under Warranty.
I see, so when you said: "Yes they WILL be offering a warranty", what you actually meant was: "I have no idea, really." I posted the original comment so that someone from the company would answer my legitimate customer service query - the unsubstantiated 'hopes' of a fanboy are not really of any use to anyone.
Interesting that many bolts don't have any locking or spring washers. Are there any issues with bolts working loose due to vibration, or do you recommend loctite or similar locking compound?
Can you tell me what pressure the spring damper has? Is it gas or compression spring? All the ones I find are gas struts with pressure shown in KG's. Can you help.?
@@immasurvivor But also a very good point to mention in the video even if you dont actually do it. Like they say on the site its a very dangerous machine when used inproperly, the same goes for subpar assembly.
HOW FANTASTIC!!!! a new machine that uses the BEST measuring units on the planet....IMPERIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!! (streamers and confetti falling from the sky). I wish I had a use for this grinder. (sigh)
Peter McNally same with the hammers too. I was on the site the moment they went live and even tried the chat feature to let someone know but never got a reply. Seems like they already got all the profit and fame they need lol
I'm sure as a small business they had to weight financial liability with expected demand. Can't fault em, I'm sure it will balance out as they learn and grow.
If I recall the one you guys use in the shop is able to turn the whole assembly on its side 90 degrees, will we be able to purchase the hardware to do that or is it something we figure out on our own?
Mckay Noble that’s the more expensive Gibson model. But the manufacturer, 84 Engineering, seems to make that mount for the 2x48 and this 2x72, so I would like to see if this is an available option in the future.
@@andyb7963 Will mostly stated the size of the head of the bolt, or the size of spanner he was using. A 3/4" AF spanner would fit the 19mm head of an M12 bolt, as 3/4" is 19.05mm. So, the fasteners could well be metric. Also, the belt grinders are made in Australia, a country that lives in the 21st century. Therefore, it would be reasonable to assume that they would use metric fasteners, thus, the question that I asked was perfectly valid.
What are the people in the UK . How do we get one without paying as much as the grinder cost again for shipping...an advertised price would be nice so we know what we are going to pay.
@@shaungibson2033 the 2x72 is only available in the United states...the UK site has a picture of the smaller one but there is nothing else..no pricing and no links.

People do, it happens when a mommy loves a daddy and they want a baby. They decide its the right time, then a stork brings a baby and puts it into the mommy's belly. Then, nine months later the baby is born. Also, your, not you're.
Point of procedure, Mister Chair: You might want to reconsider the wording on your blurb for the 2x72" grinder: You've used the word "phenomenal" three times. Mr Steele, you claim to be where our common tongue comes from-- surely you can come up with a different array of superlatives.
All Alec did is bought a bunch of grinders wholesale cheap , he must of gotten a deal if he bought so many , then put his name on them when really they were someone else’s grinders & jacked up the price , same with all the tools had them made dirt cheap then sold them at a higher price , I,ll almost bet that if you go to the dealer that sold him the tools or grinders you can get them cheaper than what he & will are selling them , I was in wholesales & retail for 5 years so I know how the system works. I,m not dumb. If you want a better price just go to the source that makes the tools & grinders . I started a company when I was 29 by legally steeling venders from a company I worked for & even negotiated a better price than the company I worked for was getting now I,m 46 & was able to retire from the company with a $ 120,000 Thousand dollar a month retirement paycheck , now my daughter runs the business.
He's literally said that's what he's doing, with a couple key additions: including all the necessary bolts, including a motor and VFD in the same package, and pre-wiring it all. Yes it's flipping, but he's adding value by doing a lot of the more PITA steps for you.
Robert Lee yeah it’s not some conspiracy, they have said repeatedly that these are made by 84 Engineering in Australia, all Alec and Will do is bulk order the grinders, motors, and speed controllers, QC, Market, set up the web site, and handle the shipping. They are doubtlessly making a profit, but when you account for the work they are putting into it, they are not robbing people blind, and are still selling a competitively priced quality product.
I'm rich too, I started my business when I was 3 and retired at 7, I earn £500,000 a month now. I also stole my employer's business contacts and I'm morally bankrupt. I'll walk over anyone just to make some cash, I dont care about being a good person or having any moral values.
