    Guys, how do you like this use of a piece of steel beam? By the way, I have one more piece left.
    Do you have any ideas what interesting things can be done?

    For an external switch I think I would add an electrical box with one plug socket for the cord and a switch where the other socket would ordinarily be. That should be available at home centers. For 120 volt appliances you should be able to run a cord from the switch box to a standard wall plug. Nice video.

    And in the time it took to make that unit, you could have made/paid for a nice cold saw, which leaves 90% less flaming metal debris around the shop. With the other piece, make a vertical/horizontal stand for a portable bandsaw.

    As for the remote power switch, install a junction box to the beam, with a 3conductor cord, an outlet to plug the grinder in & a switch to turn it on and off. Had a similar situation, built a portable table for my mini disc/belt sander on one end, 6" dual bench grinder on the other. I made the choice to hardwire both to the JB because they both had switches. So I added two outlets to the box.

    Neat. But just be sure to use a wheel bearing that doesn't rely on the splined half-shaft to clamp it together (many do require the large nut to preload the two sides of the bearing). I think this is why you can see some deflection in the bearing when the angle lock is tightened.

    Mount it on a service truck, put it on a 2 wheeled-dolly, it sits on the plat at the bottom, unpin it and slide it up to working height(36"-40"?), pin it at set height. 2 legs on both sides of the dolly, can fold out to support your system.
    Portable Cut-off, Mitter/ Cut-off System(4"-7")
    Customize the dolly to in the down position too. For heavier material/ one man operation.
