    A very interesting modification, and a cool way to get an extra wheel. IMO the cutout around the 80 grit wheel makes it look like you won't have much room to maneuver, but one would have to try to know.

    I love ingenuity at it's best. It looks like it should work fine (does it?) and is modifiable as well. Interesting use of a drill chuck as well!!

    Acually it does work, no problem with manuvering because of cutout.

    Your on our way now!

    You will find that drill chuck to be very versatile. You might want to keep an eye out for additional large pulleys so you can slow the speed down even more.
