Re: 2x72 belt grinder build.
Congrats Mike - good looking grinder. All my slips letting a finger get into a belt have healed after a couple of years but those belts take hide off really quickly when you are pushing hard and slip off The first time you have it flipped horiz and start a piece of steel into the belt have a good grip because it will want to throw it hard left and that can surprise you.

Re: 2x72 belt grinder build.
Looks really good . . .
Did you get all your adjustable handles from McMaster?
I like the one you use on your platen attachment . . . My KMG had a "BOLT" that requires a wrench.
Really first class . . .

I scored a brand new KBAC-29 off fleabay today, slowly working on my design. Just need to get the wheels and my butt in gear.
