Dear Brian, regarding vinegar, there are two varieties available through your local supermarket. One is “Cooking” vinegar and the other is “Cleaning” vinegar. The difference is a doubling factor of the acidity. I had loads of old tools that I had purchased and wanted to spruce them up to remove rust and give some shine. I loaded a bucket load with cooking vinegar and left it for a few days. Nothing, Nix, Nada. I tossed this vinegar out and replaced it with “Cleaning” vinegar for three days. Result: bubble and squeak on top and my pieces were coated with a fine black ooze. With a bulky cloth I could simply wipe off the ooze to reveal a dull base. The next part was a complete accident. I wanted to brush some resistant parts and found my only wire brush which happened to be solid brass bristles brush. Where I brushed a gold patina replaced the rust. With a few vigorous brushes my entire piece {a 3” tapping bit|} had a beautiful gold appearance. Sometimes you get lucky.
I have the TR maker small wheel attachment and i actually coated my aluminum wheels with some duct tape, like 3 layers of it and it still hasn't worn out after 6 months
Hey Brian, if you're having an issue with metric bearings in the overseas contact wheels, most bearing manufacturers make and metric O.D bearing with a inch type I.D. eg 6203-5/8" (40mm O.D. and a 5/8" I.D. very simple to change out from the original (china etc). This would be a relatively inexpensive modification. Cheers from Australia
I bought the same small wheel attachment from TR maker.. as well as the flat platen.. I was blown away with the quality and how fast shipping was to Atlanta.. Good video. Thanks
I’m liking my TRmaker small wheel setup, but thinking of covering all the different wheels with shrink tubing, as I did not know enough to order the rubber costed wheels, I got the bare steel ones.
Hello Brian, another great video. I hope you and your family are safe and healthy. That small wheel setup looks good. I would use the tap holder with a T wrench to get more even pressure on it and I always need to use some sort of alignment fixture to keep it perpendicular to the surface.
For sure Millar. I got this tool to use in a drill to do quick tapping (for when it doesn’t matter if it’s straight) I did 30 1/4 - 20 holes yesterday in about 20 mins. Thought I would break the tap but never did!! 💪🏻😁
I’d like to share a tip I learned while working in SE Asia. We also had rust issues on our steel parts and started using car wax to protect them. Since then I’ve waxed all my tables and exposed steel. I find that an aerosol can makes it easiest too.
@@HouseMadeUS while I was a Sheriffs Dep in SC I had a shotgun in my truck that I used Pledge on and after a year in SC Humidity it did not rust whatsoever. I’m not a chemist but it worked and it didn’t remove any of the finish either.
Brian I bought your belt grinder and love it but I can't get it to run backwards and I am hoping you can give me some insight as to what I did wrong in my build. thanks John
Very nice Brian. The revolution has come a long way. Those small wheel attachments look great and quick to change out. Hope you have a good Christmas 👍✊
Brian I've searched through the video and comments, I don't see how long the piece of tube steel is for the small wheel attachment. I'm sourcing tube steel now for my Gen 4 that just arrived (super excited to build), I want to have an extra piece of tool arm on hand for later. Thanks!
Nice video and great attachment for small wheel grinding. I notice your design for the material rest bar is under the wheels instead of on the left side of the 2" main bar tube. It looks like??? the lower 2" roller would prevent the use of your material rest plate holder(s) when utilizing this particular setup. Probably most of your work is freehand and it is not a big deal. Many thanks for sharing another GREAT idea and solution for your 2" X 72" Belt Grinder. They are wonderful tools. The most utilized tool in my shop. These grinders can put a quick smooth grind on lawnmower blades. John
My understanding of the 10" wheels is that the serrations have less to do with airflow, and more to do with surface area and grind consistency. By having gaps in your rubber, you decrease surface area and, therefore, increase force applied to the surface area left. (More cut for the same pressure/time.)The problem is, if you have perpendicular grooves and contact patches across the wheel, and you're grinding something thinner than two contact patches wide, you can start getting chatter on your part. By using diagonal grooves in your wheel, your work piece is always supported by at least two contact patches on the wheel.
@@HouseMadeUS I've only used grooved for grinding (we only have a grooved wheel at work.) I can tell you that with small parts, if you angle the part to match the angle of the grooves, you'll have a tough time keeping control of your finish.
Loved building this grinder from your plans, I have a few game changing upgrades going onto my mk2 build. Would love to do that collaboration video with you to unveil to the world. I believe all belt grinders can be way more versatile and efficient to use with my upgrade ideas. You have inspired me to think so far outside the box.
Thanks for the video!! Maybe I missed it in the video, but I wanted to ask what length tube steel that you used for the small wheel attachment. I have the same TRMaker unit. With the cost of steel I dont want to buy any more than needed.
Is there a way to use the Generation 4 grinder in the horizontal position in conjunction with the TRmaker small wheel set up, but with a work table? Having a notched out table for the vertical small wheel would be slick! I’m trying to figure this out, but the work rest tooling arm interferes with the wheel bolt on the TRmaker.
I did something like that years ago. You might need to get creative with the fab to make it work. 2x72 Belt Grinder Combination Work Rest - Build for Knifemaking th-cam.com/video/EyIa34xz9Hw/w-d-xo.html
Hey Brian I’m really struggling my grinder tracks perfect but I can’t can’t the small wheel for my life to track it just wants to run off it should it be tuned basically going from one To the other ??? It’s a tr maker
There should only be minor tweaks needed between attachments. Check to make sure the small wheel is seated properly in the housing. That can screw up the tracking
Simple solution for the contact wheel attachment bolt... Since you're building a new tooling arm for it anyway, just drill and tap for the metric bolt. No point to searching for a 1/2" bolt, a 13mm bolt is basically the same size, just a different tap.
Brian I am curious, did you forgo the belt compression wheels on the small wheel attachment system? I noticed mine did not come with the wheels as I saw in your video?
There are two versions of this small wheel attachment, you bought the one without the wheels. We have been out of stock of this other version for a long time.
It looks like the the bolts for the small wheel bracket are 5/16" ( imp.) or 8mm (metric). Where did the "9mm tap- - -" come from? And you could have bought a bearing with metric O.D. and imperial I.D.. Readily available from most brg makers. See your localnengineering/ bearing supplier
I was on TR Maker's web site and he doesn't list the small wheel set with the two 2" rollers. Was this a special order or he just doesn't make this version anymore?
Awesome awesome video man!! Hope u and ur family had a damn good Xmas big man!!! And bro u need to do more of that slow mow with the drill press, that shit was badass looking man!!! Especially with that counter sink bit!!! Hope u have been well bub, haven’t talked to u in a bit!!
Let's talk about the light, it's 110 right? So it can't really be direct wired into the grinders power unless you run a neutral wire when you wire the unit to building power? Is there a unit that would allow you to wire it 220 with no neutral? I picked up my metal today, I had local friend cut them at their shop, I just had them cut up a 4x8 sheet of .375. Hell I didn't even count the kits, I think there are 6. One for me, one for Dad, one for my buddy Dan, and one for Chritter. The leftovers are for, well you know how it goes, one of the Guys will be pissed I didn't build them one too. lol
I’ve had the exact thought. I thought about trying to find a spot on the VFD to hard wire the light. But these things are expensive so an extension cord works for now. Glad you’re building a few! Send pics when you can. brian@housework.us
@@HouseMadeUS I ordered a 2 pack, I'm a retired machine control electrician, Coca Cola, Anheuser busch, and Victoria's Secrets, let me look at it for a bit.
Regarding the aliexpress wheels from china... The problem is that they are in imperial dimensions but written in metric. 12.7mm is half an inch which is why I'm having a hard time finding half inch bolts for my grinder lol
I got to get me one of those tap holders, and TR's small wheel attachment. Or maybe I just need to get a mill with enough ass to turn a 1/2-13 tap. lol A guy can dream anyways.

Dear Brian, regarding vinegar, there are two varieties available through your local supermarket. One is “Cooking” vinegar and the other is “Cleaning” vinegar. The difference is a doubling factor of the acidity. I had loads of old tools that I had purchased and wanted to spruce them up to remove rust and give some shine.
I loaded a bucket load with cooking vinegar and left it for a few days. Nothing, Nix, Nada. I tossed this vinegar out and replaced it with “Cleaning” vinegar for three days. Result: bubble and squeak on top and my pieces were coated with a fine black ooze. With a bulky cloth I could simply wipe off the ooze to reveal a dull base. The next part was a complete accident.
I wanted to brush some resistant parts and found my only wire brush which happened to be solid brass bristles brush. Where I brushed a gold patina replaced the rust. With a few vigorous brushes my entire piece {a 3” tapping bit|} had a beautiful gold appearance. Sometimes you get lucky.
I have the TR maker small wheel attachment and i actually coated my aluminum wheels with some duct tape, like 3 layers of it and it still hasn't worn out after 6 months

I had to add a shim to the small wheel attachment to get it to track right on my grinder but works great after that.
Thanks for the update. I appreciate that. Enjoy.

you can also just mix water and baking soda to neutralize the acid (vinegar)
Thanks for the tip on soaking in a vinegar bath to remove milscale!
Yes I do a secondary dip in baking soda and water after the acid now. Keeps the parts from flash rusting. Works great!
I’m liking my TRmaker small wheel setup, but thinking of covering all the different wheels with shrink tubing, as I did not know enough to order the rubber costed wheels, I got the bare steel ones.

There are two versions of this small wheel attachment, you bought the one without the wheels. We have been out of stock of this other version for a long time.
Is the finish you applied to the chassis just blueing?
No finish, just a vinegar soak which is etched the surface.
It looks like the the bolts for the small wheel bracket are 5/16" ( imp.) or 8mm (metric). Where did the "9mm tap- - -" come from?
And you could have bought a bearing with metric O.D. and imperial I.D.. Readily available from most brg makers. See your localnengineering/ bearing supplier
what is the benefit of the contact wheel vs. the platen plate?
Convex and hollow grinds. I use the platen more often. But the wheel comes in very handy when you need to get into a radius.

I'm thnking about a 1/2 inch? "drive wheel / cylinder" whose shaft screws into the motor shaft without removing the big drive wheel.
then up front, like with the TR jib, a selection of driven cylinders
so the belt path is only the two small cylinders, no need for the other wheels "step down" from the triangular path
for belt tensioning (with no tension wheel), just pull the tool holding tube forward and tighten.
