How's this look :D - just this minute got it finished as a swap for a set of DVD's;)
It holds a knife blank so you can grind the initial bevels.
It measures 55mm x 55mm x 120mm (2 1/4" x 2 1/4" x 4 3/4") ;)
Welding looks a little blobby as welders playing up but well stuck :lmao::lmao:
It's made from plate as I couldn't source an offcut of 2" angle without buying 15' of it
The bottom M6 bolts are tapped into the bottom plate . They adjust the grind angle and have locknuts on them to stop the pitch altering while grinding.
The backplate holds the blank holder.
The blank holder is tapped with M6 bolts and held in place with M6 nuts. It could do with some rubber inbetween the blank and the steel to stop[ scratching but my bike dosen't need an new inner tube yet:lmao::lmao::lmao:
