You sweep angles with a caliper to get accurate hole locations... then you drill them not clamped, so the holes can wander all over. I appreciate your sharing. I will also try to save you a little grief. I've spent a lifetime around industrial stuff, I'm no safety nazzi. But drilling holes unlamped like that is easily on the top 10 list for most common "-ooh!" close call moments. I've known quite a few people with significant hand injuries (does the phrase "gutted my thumb muscles" turn your stomach like it does mine?). I had many a close call myself, before I said, "you know, it's really not much more work to always have 2-3 c-clamps by the drillpress and a drill vice." Tip: a rubber or plastic mallet is handy for getting the vice moved that last little bit to align with your hole location.
The build is a surface sander, not a surface grinder. The latter requires being able to move in and out along the Y axis in order to surface the entire width of the workpiece with the lowest point of the "grinding" wheel. While this modification will allow cleaning up surfaces, it neither ensures flatness of a surface nor precise thickness when both sides are sanded.
@@mannsdan I need to build a 6,000 sq. ft. workshop to house all of the machinery and tools I'm accumulating and have plans to purchase. I own several acres of land, but the property is 30 minutes from my current home. My wife is growing increasingly annoyed and wants me to build a new home on the remote property, but I need high speed internet and that won't be available there until 2026 (at the earliest).
@gaiustacitus4242 oh my goodness what a conundrum! I've been looking for property for years. The price of land has gone through the roof in my area lately and it's hard to justify spending a fortune on land and leave little left to build a house with! Best of luck brother!
thank you for making and put the video on yt.
great idea and very suitable for knifemaking especially small folding knife blades.

Drilling the big piece unclamped at 1:20 gives me nightmares
Love your editing style. No fluff, just cut-mark-punch-grind- produce part.
Great work. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week :)
Masterfabrication! 😊👍
Friggin awesome!
Fantastic work! Subbed!
Very cool!
Great design!
That was GREAT :-) I really like your videos.
Its mesmerizing watching someone operate a lathe, and a mind F to watch a hole being drilled while the lathe spins and the bit is stationary.
Pretty damn cool.
Holding the square stock in the split collar, brilliant.😮😮😮😊
you get a sub for that, great job!
This seems plenty good enough for most knives, but not super high precision.
Very clever! Well done!
Thank you!
Best! 🙌🏽🙏🏽
it's beautiful job
Nice
nice one I just have a feeling that you had to grind the sliding table first so there is some kind a flathes...
Excellent presentation and super workpiece

Looks brilliant… Any chance you can advise me as to what motor your using here, eg HP etc … Thanks
👍👍👍

Hola amigo me podría decir de qué potencia es el motor
Лайк ,но видос уже видел!
You can use just flap wheel 120 no without making all this😁
holy crud that's sweet! i want one! but first i have to diy a lathe.
Just pay another hobby machinist in your area to make the parts a lathe is needed for.
@@gaiustacitus4242 ended up acquiring a surface grinder. Now I want a rolling mill. Lol!

@gaiustacitus4242 your username is interesting. Are you a historian? I know Tacitus was the most well-known Roman historian. I was just wondering...
Do you have all the measurements etc?, I would like to build this.
Really....come on man
Привет👋
А магниты как закрепили? Они же могут и к заготовке прилипнуть и каждый раз их снимать с детали и вставлять обратно в отверстия?🤔
Epoxy?
Вы продаёте гриндеры, если да то цена
