In this review, the author shares the idea of how to make a powerful cutting machine for metal on the basis of a grinder with your own hands.
This is a good idea for a home workshop or garage. True, its implementation is a rather laborious matter, and it will take 1-2 days for sure.
First you need to make a table on which the cutting machine from the grinder will be placed.
We start with the legs - we need to cut four pieces of the profile, insert the bolts with nuts into them, and weld the nuts to the profile pipes. Washers must be welded to the hats with a bolt.
The author cuts the countertop from a sheet of metal with a thickness of at least 8-10 mm). Then we weld the legs to the countertop, and we clean the welds.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, we cut a piece of a channel that is suitable in length. We drill holes in it. Then we weld it to the countertop.
Next, you need to cut two pieces of a round pipe, and then cut them along.
The master prepares the resulting workpieces to metal plates. The result is two parts that will be attached to the shock absorbers.
The shock absorbers themselves are attached to the rack of the channel. The author first drains the oil from them.
Then it remains only to weld the mount for the grinder (for this the master uses pieces of metal and bolts with nuts) and you can start assembling.
Additionally, it will be necessary to emphasize the workpieces and install a spark arrestor. At the end, electrical work is performed and the machine is ready for use.
