Before buying this sander I would use a rotary sander ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx3Pc2vLXfcgM5oIpF1iYcIWyFhHUC-G6v and didn't see the need for a belt sander. Boy was I wrong. this belt sander does the job quickly and gives a professional finish to the wood work.
Yes
This machine shows a robust appearance and is clearly strong. Congratulations on giving us the opportunity to see this work of art and work that will certainly help many who need a machine like this!
Absolutely
Omg, that background music, I wanted to stick a screw driver min my ear, it was like the theme song to some B grade Sci fi movie
Don’t hurt yourself. Lol
Your channel really is one of those hidden gems
Thank you
Simply amazing. Looking forward to other great builds.
Thank you so much!
A beautiful rugged creation. Should last for generations. Congratulations.
Thanks ! I am hoping it will
Ridiculously epic. Super slick shots, too!

A Masterpiece.
Thank you
Thanks mate , this is awesome 👌
Thank you
beautiful build and great video
Thank you
Excellent design and execution-Very Well Done ✅👍
Thank you
@Vanover Customs I'm definitely not alone in wanting plans, and honestly I think this is the only machine I've seen which I would consider good enough, simple enough, full featured enough "cool" enough to pay for. I really like the am tensioner. All in all, you did an ABSOLUTELY incredible job and your grinder kicks ass bigtime
Thanks one day I will do plans. I need to make some corrections to the design first but it’s pretty close. Not one issue from 3 years of use
How about complete grinder maybe in kit form??@@VanoverMachineAndRepair
beautiful machine looks great
Thank you
Great build, congrats Man! Will definitely look out for the drawings when you post them.
Will do thanks
Just found your channel. I am extremely impressed
I appreciate it man
Good work...Great build...very good...
I appreciate it. Thank you.
Mate! Bloody kick ass video 👊🏻 that’s a belt grinder a man dreams of!
Your a talented bloke, never stop 🤟🏼
Will do thx
Very solid looking machine. I'd love to see a full walk-through, demonstration video showing all the functionality and features. Looks like it has some capabilities that even the "gold standard" machines don't have.
Thank you I plan to make a video of this stay tuned
Sound mind TV: Type in “homemade belt sander, Ellie Price” for a full walk-through on the grinder that I made in my shop. My grinder is now for sale. I’ll watch for your comment. Thanks

Well done. This is the first video I’ve seen of yours. Definitely deserves a subscription...... 👍👍😎👍👍
Thank you. I appreciate it
Definitely not a video to watch when you're in the middle of building one... now the ideas going through my head lol. Great build, love the versatility without a ton of spare parts laying around.
Thank you very much
Incredible build! Definitely would love a set of build plans!
Thanks. I’ll let you know when I get the plans together
Vanover Customs. I’m also interested in the plans.
That music sounds like you are building the original knight rider 😅
Very cool build!
Yeah it’s a cool track
Nice Work. Nice result. Congratulations brother.
Thank you
very nice and its great to see someone make one without a ton of fancy tools
Thank you very much
Nice work
Thank you
thanks master for the video 📹
Of course
Im out of words, super Epic, like is the least that I can do,
Thank you I appreciate it
Rock solid and built to last long .
Still being used every day today
Great content... especially like the editing so you get right into it with all the fluffy wank some of the other channels do.
Love seeing machines build things, keep it up.
Thank you sir
It looks like a very impressive build and finished grinder. I would like to make a request of you. Please don't use the same backing music on any new videos you make. It does your head in and forces the watcher to mute the sound.
Thanks for the feedback
The Best!
Thanks
This is an all-round device, I even want to remake one. Perfect job, keep going
Thank you Hans. I use it everyday. Every workshop needs one
Hi, just wanted to ask if you accept made to order that UNIQUW BELT GRINDER MACHINE that you've just presented. Indeed, I wanted to HAVE THE SAME for my personal use. I'm from the Philippines and if you built me one, can you install a variable motor drive with a FREQUENCY of 50/60hz exact specification due to our standard rating is 57.5 Hz,200-220 VAC. DO pls respond if you can built me one, and send me the costing including logistics of delivery. I'm looking forward if you can accommodate me to built one,with TILTABLE PLATE TABLE and an attachment that can grind end radius for bracket use. We can communicate though fb messenger via internet for mutual communication access. Thank you, hope to hear from you then., GOD BLESS....DEOGRACIAS R. VICENTE.
I would love to sell you one but I am not ready yet once I have these up for sale I will let you know
Kardeşim! Ellerine sağlık gerçekten çok çok güzel olmuş.
Thanks!
wow very nice machine
Thank you
amazing
Thank you!
Very complicated build, best 2x72 belt grinder on youtube i've seen by far.
Wow, thanks!
Wow! Wish the algorithm would have sent me to you earlier. Almost done with my 2x72 build. Mines nice. Yours is next level. Liked and sub’d.
Thank you
I think I've watched nearly every 2 x 72 build video on UA-cam, yours ranks right up there! I've got a couple of questions, if you don't mind sharing. You used a cordless DeWalt jig saw...what model was that? It seemed to work very well! What sort of tapping chuck do you use? Maybe I'm getting fooled by tape speed but it seemed way quicker that anything I've seen before.
Congrats again, such an excellent machine!
Thank you. The saw was a dewalt dcs331b. The chuck is not what makes it easy. I use a keyless chuck sometimes but the keyed chucks give a better grip. What makes this work well is the variable speed control (vfd) I have on my drill press so I can run the tap slow. Also gun taps (spiral point taps) work well for through holes. The taps you get at a local hardware store do not work will for this and are much more likely to break. Hope that helps. The two chucks I use are the Jacob’s keyless high torque precision chuck and the old style Jacob’s keyed chuck.
genio....complimenti
Thanks
Awesome video. I recommend you get yourself a plasma cutter, game changer in the shop especially for cutting thicker stock👍
Thanks I do have that on my list, though if I am going to be milling parts after they are cut won’t a plasma cutter leave a hardened edge making it difficult to machine?
@@VanoverMachineAndRepair Not on mild steel. Mild steel won't harden, try as hard as you might. Different story tho on high carbon steels (knife blades etc). I do give it a quick lick with an angle grinder just to keep dust down on the milling machine. Great build tho mate. Designing one for myself as we speak. But honestly, I haven't stolen any ideas from yours at all... Well... Maybe just one... or three :-)
Nice
Thanks
I need one! How much will cost to build one for me?😍
Lol they are expensive
$12,780.00! You know it doesn’t need to be this heavy duty, but once you see something like this everything else seems too flimsy! Nicely done 👍🏼👍🏼
Это шедевр 👍💪
Thank you
Nice job. You went through a lot scratch building. Would be nice to have some working drawings for a price.😊 Thankyou for the video.
Thank you very much. I might be working on some drawings in the future, I will let you know.
This grinder is over engineered, over built, and it’s absolutely incredible for what it is. 👍👍
Thank you
Unreal bro! Great job. Where did you get your contact wheels and hardware?
I think kmg belt grinder supplies
Very nice grinder build! I am 90% done one of my own very similar to yours. The last part I need to do is the belt tensioner. I don't like the spring-type or air pistons that most commercial grinders have. I've noticed the ratchet type the Beaumont KMX-TX has which I like. I see you designed a cam style but in the video you skim over it pretty fast. Do you have a sketch or more detailed video of the build on this part as I think this would be easier to built than a ratchet assy? Bill
Thank you. I don’t have a drawing sorry. It was tricky to make. I just worked with it until I got it. I made a cam and mounted it on a shoulder screw. I can take some photos and send them to you if you like. It works well but does have some drawbacks. Mainly that the cam doesn’t work in the middle like I hoped. When it’s fully articulated it stays in place but in the middle of the stroke it slips. If I were to do it again I might go for the ratchet style or work harder to get the cam style to work. I spent a while on it but not enough to perfect it. Also the longer video I have might provide more insight. Hope that helps thx.
Привет из России! Молодец !!!
If you raised the grinder a tad you could have it completely on the bench with a half full metal dish under the platen for spark catching.
Good point. Certainly would simplify the cart design. I like the current height for standing at the machine to keep that height I would need a shorter cart but that would work. Thanks for the feedback
Outstanding job, like your color choice- my one question is (probably more to come) what kind blade did you use to cut the steel Thanks
Metal cutting blades for steel carbide
Love the videos. You put a long rod in the chuck of the drill and put a drill bit in a vise. How do you decide when to do that? Why is it better than putting the long rod in the vise and drilling into it like normal?
Yeah, with the workpiece spinning it helps center the hole. I have a lathe now which is the ideal use but without a lathe this technique helps you put a hole dead center in a round object
Would be nice if you have the plans for it.
At some point I will do plans
The steel thickness is beyond overkill it is bordering on being pathetic.But still a great job!!
Thanks
Dear Sir, thanks a lot for sharing. Magnificent build. Was that a milling machine that you used for your drilling? If not and its an ordinary drill, I’d love to know how the broaching bits are held.
It’s a regular drill press. Check my other video on the press and it might give you the info you need. The quill has a mt2 adapter which allows me to change out the chucks.
Great video & awesome music playlist! 😎
Thanks
Wow, you can send this thing to me!
Sure
Nice job. What is the speed controller and motor you used?
Thank You. Kb electronics 27d for vfd and motor is baldor 2h 1800 rpm motor, 3 phase.
Молодец парень.
Thank you
I’m in the middle of my build right now, and I just finished some prep on the exact same articulating work rest design. I am curious though, why did you decide to cut the slots with the slugger and not the portaband?
Good question. I think the portaband word probably work. After looking at lots of articulating arm rests it looked to me like the spacing was around and eighth of an inch maybe a little shy. The porta band that I have has a blade that’s like 1/32 of an inch wide and I didn’t know if it would be too narrow for clamping, also I wanted a nice clean cut so it would look factory the chopsaw did a perfect job doing that.
VERY VERY NICE, GOOD VIDEO. COMPLIMENTI VIVISSIMI DALL ' ITALIA. . . . . . . . 10 + + + + +.
Thanks!
Great piece of kit .. this maybe a stupid question but what was the cutter used at the beginning of the video .. it looked like a woodworkers saw??
It is a Milwaukee metal cutting saw 18v
What blade did you use for your circular saw? And awesome job by the way
Metal cutting blade, that saw is designed to cut metal
COOL
Thanks
Amazing machine, waiting for plans.
When will the plans be available, anyway?
Not sure yet i am going to get to it one day
Matko Boska Bezlitosna. Piękne
Thank you
hi

Thank you!
better grinder 2 x 72 ever
I appreciate it!
hi
goo job.
what is the grade steel plate?
A36 mild steel
Nice build!!!! What model is that drill press??
he has a video where he restored it, its a 1940's delta
Delta 17”
nice job!
Is that a VFD controlling the speed?
Thanks! :)
Yes it it thanks
@@VanoverMachineAndRepair :)
Are you supplying plans for your grinder
Not yet
Hi, I’m a UK knife maker and like you have made my own grinders but I’ve struggled to get my hands on good quality rubber coated wheels....Could I ask where you picked yours up from please. Thanks Mic 👌🏻🔥🔪
Beaumont tool works. The make the king bent grinder and also sell rubber wheels. Thanks
Could you give some details on your tensioner. Desparate
I would be happy to. It’s a little hard to explain in the comments. Once I get some plans together I will let you know
1:00 I didn’t realize you could cold cut that thick of steel with a circular saw
Yeah it is a metal specific circular saw
One of the most bad ass grinder videos I've watched. This thing looks quite beastly, and you drill holes in thick plate like it's going out of style.
This build definitely isn't for the faint of heart that's for sure (at least compared to some others, like the House / Work build). But if you have a couple hundred lbs of steel and aluminum lying around then this isn't a bad use for it. As I said in your drill press mag vice video, some of your fab techniques seem a bit unconventional but they seem to work out (eventually lol).
Great work - Subscribed!
Thanks for your sub! Way to many holes lol. To many to be practical. I actually started with a weld design but had to many warping issues so I went the bolting route. It was a lot of work but it provides great serviceability if needed in the future at least that’s what I tell myself ;)
518 subs. And fabrication skills like that. Yeah, you got another one bro. Keep up the good work.
Right on! Thank you
👍
Thank you
круто!! мощь!
Thanks
where did you get the rubber wheels and this stub for the platen mounting from ?
Beaumont metal works
@@VanoverMachineAndRepair thanks man , i’ve been looking for a shop that sells These for ages :D you just made my day
No prob, it took me a while to find them myself
Brilliant video. Looking forward to more. New sub here all the best from Ireland.
Thank you we appreciate it.
I would love to buy a set of plans when you have them available
Thx once I get the plans together I will let you know
Чтобы сделать гриндер, нужен ещё один гриндер.
