OK i kept seeing ad's for this belt sander buffer things for grinders online SO i finally bought one off walmart.com and I got a M14 one BUT the grinders run a 5/8-11 thread so I drilled the aluminum center out and tapped it to that and it works awesome on my m18 grinder. Also got a scotch bright belt 1.5" x 30 from empire abrasives and am blown away at how well this thing works and the rusty tube on my truck will be a thing of the past as you can see here. Also some of my air bumps cans had surface rust since they are 6 or 7 years old so buffed that off and mounted it on the truck.

Also I paid around $40 for this but it's now much more expensive

So ghetto. So useful for so many things. 
Maybe someday I'll need extra height and bolt one to a drum.

That is a great idea. I have an endless supply of rotors.So ghetto. So useful for so many things.

The center hole doesn’t work so good as a press plate with more than two tons pushing on itThat is a great idea. I have an endless supply of rotors.

Duly noted! I'll stack them...The center hole doesn’t work so good as a press plate with more than two tons pushing on it

Version 1.0 of my home made bead breaker, primarily for ATV tires but suppose it could do small car tires as well. I've got some changes to make now that I've used it and stared at it for a while but it does do the job on all but the worst crusty tires/wheels I've got kicking around.

Here ya go. I'll keep it in one thread for ya
My bead roller, and english wheel finished, and I'm gearing up to build my belt grinder soon, and am working on a power hammer, something I can use a thumbnail die on, as well as do some forging. Knife making is on my bucket list, I have the space and a home we own, so everything i'm building now is oversized, with the intent to never have to upgrade again.
Im interested to see large equipment people have built, I know some of ya'll have some homemade presses, thats high on my list to build as well

Why doesn't China make those yet?
You deleted the thread along with the attached pics in it so they wont show up at all now
I'll redo my post here, please delete the quoted one of mine above.Needed a case spreader but didn't have time to wait for one to ship so made this from the scrap rack
Special socket to torque mainshaft nut on a M5OD
Various benders for my press - flat plate, 3/4 solid round rod and j-hooks for coil springs
Yoke and flange holder for setting up gears
My version of a POB bracket, have since welded on a flat plate to the top for a digi level
Needed another set of fan clutch wrenches so I made my own copying a set I had bought

Stupid is as stupid does
Printed an adapter to go from the slide hammer to the power steering pump shaft so that I could rebuild it.
Did you put the threads right in the print or cut them afterwards?
I modeled the threads into the print. It took a few tweaks to get it right. Nothing better than spending way more time using the 3D printer instead of just finding some scrap metal in the garage and drilling/bending it to fit work.
