In this review, the wizard shows how, using simple and affordable materials, to make a drum grinding machine with your own hands.
For the manufacture of a grinding machine, plywood 20 mm thick will be required, as well as some other materials.
First of all, the master cuts off two pieces of plywood. Having set a gap between them, the author connects them using four door hinges.
To the bottom sheet of plywood you need to attach wooden blocks, which serve as stops for the top sheet and stands for the shaft.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, two guides must be screwed to the bottom sheet of plywood.
Between them, the author establishes a movable support platform, with which you can adjust the angle of inclination of the top sheet.
Housing bearings are attached to the side posts, into which a wooden shaft is inserted.
Then you will need to install an electric motor (for him, the master made a separate platform, which is attached to the base).
At the last stage of the work, it remains only to wind a grinding belt of suitable grain size onto the shaft.
The advantage of this design is that you can grind large furniture panels.
