Homemade Bench Grinder

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

this is a really bad idea without a wheel gard of the looks it seems to to be a small hi rev grinder 10000rpm__ and a 230mm disc with a max rpm 6000 it will explode and maybe kill you

This is a bad idea, unless you use a disk that is the correct diameter for the grinder. I had a disk explode one time. Fortunately It did not hit me. I heard it hitting the wall 20 feet away. I never found the pieces. If nothing else, you are severely overloading the grinder and will burn out the motor, or wear out the bevel gears.

My Dad stuck an overly large diameter disc in a 7 inch grinder to cut bolts on a cultivator. The disc shattered and cut his calf muscle clean off. He said it didn't even bleed as the blade cauterised the cut but he fell down and then he saw his own leg bone. He said "Bob, did you know your calf muscle is always in tension and holds you up? "What was done in this picture is a really bad idea. Yes, the hospital pulled his muscle down with a jack and welded , I mean sewed it back in place. Silly old Dad, he survived that one.

Darwin?
