New Grinder

**Str8Raz0r** · 08-21-2012, 05:03 AM

Hi guys, I just finished this off on the weekend. The old wooden grinder (http://straightrazorpalace.com/forge...s-charlie.html) still works ok but is becoming a little unrealiable.The design is basically a 'No Weld Grinder' straight off the plans, but I think that I may do some welding once I have it tuned.

I have yet to do more than some test grinding at this stage but am looking forward to making a few blades on her.

Anyway here it is.

Cheers,
Stu

That looks pretty neat Stu, well done

Looking forward to see what comes of it in the future

I'm in the process of getting a grinder set up, was looking at a similar one, but found it a bit expensive right now, the low budget version suits me much better at the moment, thanks for linking to it, hadn't seen neither your's or Charlie's before, gave me some new ideas to work with.

Adam, if only a new grinder would create more time in front of it. Unfortunately my day job keeps getting in the way.

Awesome! The parts for mine are still sitting on the floor in a heap. I'm always jealous of the thing others have that I don't....Namely, motivation.

I think you're gonna have fun with that!
