1. Getting more from your angle grinder

- First and the most original version about the angle grinder guide. Year after publishing this they started to make them in China. ( also several other youtubers suddenly "invented" The same )
#hack #anglegrinder #tool
Searched for a good build idea for the grinder. Saw this one early on and watched dozens after this one. Came back and watched this a few times. Best out of all the others. I've already fabricated all the parts, just gotta weld it all together
If you watch the publishing dates of the videos? You'll notice that this also was the original version.
@ I'll have to pay attention. This video is actually the only one with this design that I found. All others were different. It was only after I made it did a bunch of other videos with this design start coming into recommendations. TH-cam gave me the original first. 😊
I appreciate how you have maintained all the functionality of the various tasks an angle grinder is used for and designed in the quick-change aspect which is so important. Great!
For the person who doesn't have bench grinder or metal cutoff machines, this idea fills those roles nicely, and you could make long straight cuts if you use a straight edge too.
The way he made the tool, and how he put this video together gives me the impression that Tuomas is good at whatever he puts his mind to. Good stuff.
Thank you very much!
I like your channel header. Thank you very much for supporting our country in this difficult time for us!

At the start of this I was thinking "What's he trying to achieve here? What's the point?"
Now I'm thinking this has to be one of the best, most useful tool-making videos I've seen. Turning your grinder into a circular saw, chopsaw and bench-grinder.
I see adverts for low-cost commercial versions appearing above where I am typing, but they don't have the fun of actually making it!
Thanks for sharing.
Tuomas, I'm seriously impressed that the tool manufacturers haven't grabbed your designs and sold them as their own. Good job once more, and I will be making this for my own grinder.
Alonzo Branson Thanks mate!
Hello I am from Russia. Thank you for the video. Great job. Good luck.
коля смирноф Thanks for the comment. Im from your neighbour country, Finland. 😊 Too bad that i don't speak Russia very well. Good luck to you too.
Of all the DIY angle grinder attachments, this is the best! Took a lot of things into consideration to make it very versatile. Thanks.
I keep watching this video and cannot think of a reason except I need to make this for my grinder! Great Job Tuomas!
After I bought my everlast welder I found I needed a grinder. Now I have 5 grinders and I am for sure going to make one of your creations for at least one of them. Thank you for the great idea and sharing
Awesome build, bro!
The chopsaw/bench grinder part at the end blew me away!
You really should consider patenting & marketing this if it's not already out there.
That's really cool! I think I would add a removable spring to hold the grinder up when using the cut-off fence feature but only if I were cutting a bunch of stuff at the same time. For an item or two I'd leave it the way it is.
the best DIY adapter I have seen so far....congratulation.
I was a shop teacher as the Americans call it.I spent a lot of time teaching simple ideas to students. Your design ticks all the boxes.
It is safe,simple, visually pleasing, easy to make, easy to fit and works extremely well.
Do you have industrial design in your background?
Your work is brilliant.
Excellent..!! Toumas, I really liked the addition to be able to take advantage of our grinder, I am an amateur to work with metal and make additions to make our life easier when working any project.
So I decided to take more advantage of it and taking as inspiration your video, make my new addition, just today to prove that it works, thank you very much for sharing.
Greetings from Mexico.
Cristian Garrido Thanks buddy. Im glad if you found it usefull. 😊
I love this complete build in one video. Enough info to build one for myself. Thank you
This is about the coolest thing since sliced bread and flip top beer! Thanks for the upload
It's the simple solutions that are the best.
Like E=MC2, simplifying things makes humans happier. You should be a tool designer as this is a great add on. It's the people who work with these tools often who know what they should do. Someone else said that drills should have flat tops instead of curved so you can press them against a vertical straight edge and get 90 degree drill press like precision from it. It's so simple yet no one has done it.

Thanks for sharing your grinder hack. I just finished doing mine and it works great. I even use it as mini circular saw. Thanks again bro...
Приветствую, друг! Спасибо из России за умное приспособление. Пригодится многим самодельщикам!
You can tell dudes got skills by the "I've done this before"not"I've seen this done before on TH-cam"video
Amazing idea, just awesome! I think it wont be long till u see it in tool shops everywhere.. You should protect the design asap, it has so much potential!!
for holding that grinder with one hand using a cutoff wheel those are pretty straight cuts
Великолепно! Без лишней болтовни, все по делу!
I rent an expensive tile saw to cut granite. It was a big struggle and I end up finishing my project with same grinder. Your attachment to the grinder could make my next project a lot easier.
I have seen many versions of this, but nothing as versatile as what you have made. Great work.
nice this is the best angle grinder attachment I've seen. Great build!
Dakota Black Thanks a lot!
That is pretty darn clever. I think I could build this without much trouble. Nice work and thanks for sharing.
I'm glad I found this video. This is exactly what I had in mind. Thanks for sharing.
Nice work! A handy tip for restrikes on that SMAW electrode....keep a file handy and a couple strokes over the end of the rod, after each tack will make for real easy restarts...

Nice design . And it looks like it works great .
Glen mckelvey Thanks Glen. Im glad that you liked!
That's great invention, Too good mate !wish i have one like that.
CHEERS 👍
yahya John Thanks buddy!

Did it today, it's on de side of my welding table.. tank you for sharing this project!! cheers!
looks lovely, really nicely made, but I usually just put a ferrous disc in my circular saw.
One of the most functional
Это стандарт видеообзора !... Приспособа - КлаСС !!!... Никакой лишней болтовни и шелухи, всё ясно и по делу !..
Yes my friend as I had told you before, your creativity an innovation, never sleep. Greetings and my respects from the Caribbean Shore.
I was going to build a stationary 4'' chop saw, not now . . .going to make one like yours!
Dam good design, glad you put this out. . . Thanks
Nice utilization of Angle grinder as circular saw cutter(more safe way)
Одно из самых простых,но очень удачных решений которые я видел!Молодец мужик!Есть,конечно,минусы,но легко исправить.Возьму себе на заметку.
Excellent Design! Thank you for sharing!
Гениально! Просто, красиво, аккуратно и функционально! Спасибо за идею.
That's sweet! I was thinking about making a stand and turning my 7 inch grinder into a chop saw of sorts but I like this better. Another thing on my to-do list.
Автору респект! Хорошее видео и очень полезная доработка! Сделаю так же) Спасибо за идею! Дешево, универсально и удобно! Класс!
TH-cam daki bu katagorinin en iyisi bu yaptığınız. teşekkürler.
Просто, удобно, быстро разбирать, функционально. Отлично! Лайк.
Beautifully done sir. If only there was a slightly different version of this video where all the parts were store bought instead of custom machined. I don't know a single person with all of the equipment necessary to make this as is.
Восхитительно! Великолепная работа руками удачные самоделки. подписываюсь.
now all I have to do is get a brake press ---- then the arc welder ---- and then o course a plasma cutter which is what I needed before I got sick of breathing in grinder wheel gas.
Actually I am 65 and jealous.
Thanks for the inspiration friend. Wanna get back into it when I have a better shop and exhaust system.
Who needs an angle grinder stand when you can cut straight lines like that freehand.. wow
ironically.
Best one of these I've seen. Also, the cleanest work.
Perfect Idea and cool job. The only thing I think is to be changed - the lever - it`s too close to the basement and it`s not convenienn to use it while cutting. But its only my opinion< of course.
Thank you very much for this fantastic and original design. I'll be making mine today and will call it TOFiG. Best regards.
Thank you Tuomas, You are getting quite famous all around the world. Watched your video last year and frankly was intimidated my all the cutting and welding.
Anyway I gave it a go using my Milwaukee grinder. The only issue I had was that I picked a very thin material for the stand and also the plate strips did not have enough incline in my grinder.Anyway I still messed with the design and ended up using the plate from a small cordless circular saw and attaching the grinder with a door hinge (Screw grinder strips to top of hinge, then screw bottom hinge to plate make sure is all squared)
Thanks again Tuomas let us know if you can come up with a design that you can using only hardware instead of welding since most people either lack the skill or the resources.
Thank you for the comment. And no welding- version sounds a good idea. Thank you for that. 😊👍
Nice! I really like your attention of details
i suggest you to apply for patent and sell this design. there is a huge market for consumers. all the best. good design and creativity.
Bravo. Best one I've seen yet
this looks amazingly dangerous
Incredible Job, great creativity and easy to understand and trying-to-do project!!! Suggestion s for all is to go to the indicated site Tuomas shows. Excelente, muchas gracias desde Buenos Aires!!
Don't forget the bonus of no stupid music playing in the background. Just the sweet sound of work!!!
Hi Tuomas :
I do really ignore where you live and I like your creation.This is my humble opinion : Your grinder attachment is worthy of a patent. Nice and inspirational work......👍
Luis Morales Thank you very much!
Great idea! Definitely going to build one or more of those. Thanks!!
a rare useful design. thank you.
What a versatile modification.
I'd apply for a patent on that...AND QUICK. There would be a serious market for such an adapter and it literally turns an angle grinder into a smaller circular saw. Take it from someone who uses hand/power tools every day that if I can throw one less tool into my bag and still get the job done, I'm a happy camper.
Holy crap, got half a mind to make one of these of my own. Great work!
Very well thought out and elegant, thank you for sharing!
Finish guy (Tuomas) really like your ideas and work. Very well thought through and done. Don't stop, will be stealing (using) bits of your grey cells' ideas.
Keep well. And btw Metal is never a bad thing - have been hooked on Ensiferum for a week now, bloody Finns I say :)
Makita should hire you to run product development. These accessories you've made are great.
Tuomas, thanx for great video and idea!
Its really simple, compact and multiply functional attachment for grinder. And its safety.
More tnx!
Евгений Ушкалов Thank you for your nice comment!
Ты ГЕНИЙ !!!!!! Russia respekt !))))
NIKITA96150 Thanks! a lot!
Wow great video! That back stop was an awesome idea, mini chop saw!
louis dellanno Thanks!
Angle grinder, best tool ever.
молодец .и все понятно без лишних слов. уже приступаю к изготовлению .
Ещё есть канал маде ин поланд
'dexterous' is the best choice for complementing a man who cuts like that!!!
Only major issue with this is for safety and also ease of cutting this is not good because the wheel is turning counter-clockwise seen from the side of the open disc wich means that the grinder could pop out of your material and scratch its surface
very smart..noticed the welder fingers.........great job
Thansk
It was necessary to make a slot in the lower platform. Then it would be possible to saw on the stop. And so everything is beautiful! Respect for the author. I'm always interested in seeing interesting ideas.
Best one I've seen yet.def the one I'm making. Thank you
You have so many equipment its possible for you.
seriously mad max u need plans after watching a video of him literally building it from scratch in detail u can rewind ,play it over and over watch in slow mode
fantastic! love your work!
looks like one of my grinders is going to be a 'circular grinder'/mini cut off saw/ bench grinder! excellent, thanks very much!!
stevethenurse Thanks mate!
Hats off pal ,super good work . I wish I could have one like this . tks
I really like the video , i really need this , i had a couple of accidents where i dropped the grinder (fatigue and overworked lol) and it went crazy on the floor, hit me in the knee , right thumb and thigh lol , my problem is i'm left handed lol , almost all of the time when im working , i forget that i'm tired , my hand almost all the time gives up and let the grinder go lol
Very useful attachment. Good job buddy.
petestreet Thank you!
I definitely want to weld one of those with my everlast welder. Nice tool.
That's sick! One day I will try this. Great job dude.
Nice and uncomplicated tool...I really like it..!
I like this. You should patent it and sell the jig.
Its a hell of an idea, good work man!
Matheus Ramalho Thank you!
excelente trabajo lo tomaré en cuenta en mi trabajo gracias por tu tiempo y fabricar éstas herramientas 🐂😎👍
Once again great job brother! Like I said before, I don't have welding equipment but definitely will be looking in to some equipment and some classes in the near future!
Jaime Navarro Thanks. And great to hear!
Great design for a wood working blade!
Great idea.Great fabrication.Want to build one.Thank you for sharing.
I'm like this design.
That is a great idea. I'm going to use my everlast to weld myself one soon.
Very slick, any dimensions/plans available? This is the first time I'm asking ANYONE for plans !! Consider a patent or trying to market it.
I've got to get my powerarc welder and make this for myself. That is so cool.
i love structural welding
nice idea i love it
Hi Tuomas - Nice video - i have a little add for your invention, try and make it so you can adjust how deep it cuts (like 2 mm or 2 cm ) would be usefull. But i think its a great thing you made :-)
Clever boy - very nice indeed.
Why the hell don't they sell them as an attachment - I'd definitely buy one.
I'm not good enough to make one, but I do have lots of cash :-)
Many thanks !
