  • I have been Carving a sandstone grind-stone for milling grains into flour.
    I will also convert it into a multi-tool for making cold-pressed juices and pottery.
    This is the first time I have carved stone before and had no idea what I was doing.

    Id love to see the follow up! Definitely the best diy stone video on UA-cam

    Did you make a follow up video to this? It’s the best one I’ve seen so far on how to make a grind wheel from scratch.

      Hello @torque8899!
      Unfortunately there isnt a follow up a video as we moved from that land and are now elsewhere.
      In future we are looking at doing something similar so keep your eyes peeled here.
      Thanks for watching!

      Yes, I definitely want to make more of these and complete the project.
      We need to find a suitable location with a self-contained cabin/studio/ granny flat and a forest ecosystem with maximum species biodiversity.

    Subbed because I love your mindset and this project and also because you’re even crazier than me, I think.

      Cool, yukka soap. I will have to try it.
      I knew there had to be a good use for yukka.

    Hint: When hammering a steel chisel, a steel hammer works much faster than a branch.

      That would make sense, though, if I recall, the point was to try be quiet whilst my lady was sleeping.

      @lonewolfsvoice I finished grinding the stone however, I wasn't able to find the components being the floor flange, pillar block bearing and threaded rod (without having to buy a 6 metre length of rod)

      @@Ilovethebush Often times machine shops will have off cuts. Hmm you're in Australia, I'm guessing, if you were in america I would say run down to the nearest farm supply store and they would have all of those items. Outside of that you could try scavenging parts off an old car at the scrap yard if you have one near you. Tie rod ends and some tie rod may be workable into what your need I think.

      It's a long video, so if you can pinpoint the exact moment of singing, then I can more accurately answer your question.

    What happens if you anchor the chisel pointing upwards and place the stone on it and spin? ... wonder if thatd put too much force and split the stone in half

    • @Ilovethebush
      @Ilovethebush  Рік тому +2

      I like your creative thinking, however, I would think the sheer weight of the stone would make it an awkward process to attempt., getting the balance right would be a nightmare.

      Hello @Ms. Pumpkin,
      We could make such a video. Do you have a place whereby we can film such a project?
