Miscellaneous

 

 

These are my two main grinders.  The tall one is a Coote, and the small wheel grinder is shop built.  Both are powered by 1 hp motors (the small wheel grinder's motor is variable speed).

 

Across the aisle from the Coote and small wheel grinder is a Dayton 1x42 grinder that is used primarily for profiling.  Next to it are two 4x36 sanders, were I keep a 50 grit belt on one, and a 120 grit belt on the other. 

To the left of the small drill press  is a shop built low speed horizontal disk.  This disk turns at 400 rpm's, and I use it mainly for flattening bolsters.
