If you need to maintain +/- 0.0015" flatness, a real surface grinder is needed. Then there are the various surface grinding attachments for belt grinders. Travis Wuertz, OBM, and KMG all make those now. They are not cheap by any means, and they may or …
The carriage I made from a 1 1/2" x 6" x 6" block of steel, and cut a dovetailed grove in the bottom (left). The problem I had at this point was I needed a surface grinder to grind the 60 deg bevel on the rails, as they were over 2 feet long, …

Re: Homemade surface grinder? Post by Bingo Bob » Mon Aug 02, 2004 4:11 pm Wow, there is a lot of old surface grinders around dirt cheap, it seems that it would be easier and better to fix up an existing grinder than build one.

I have the mounting method for the bench grinder and the magnetic chuck figured out, but I don't know a good way to raise and lower the cross slide. I was thinking of using a cheap 32mm ...

attach the bench grinder to some kind of beam with say a 1:10 leverage and use a screw for adjustment. edit: assuming you want to get something small flat and parallel, get a small granite surface plate and a milling attachment for a lathe. mount the attachment with the motor to the plate and pass the workpiece under the wheel by hand. dont climb. lock the gibs (if there are any).

Sand all the layers to properly deburr the wood pieces and expose a fresh surface that would also allow better glue adhesion. Cut a keyway in the shaft using an angle grinder. This will allow you to lock the drive disk to it a bit more tightly. Glue the plywood layers on the shaft. Sand and spin the drum with a drill to get the right shape.

I am trying to make a "Surface Grinder" ! If only I could change the TITLE of this thread ! nhrifle - A Surface Grinder has a cross-table and it has grinding dust to deal with. But - of course - you are right. My machinist friend, Gary, scoffs at having a grinder anywhere near a Lathe or Milling Machine....abrasive dust.
DIY Surface grinder. A fast ticket to ridicule, according to some bod trying to do it on YouTube, but what care I? I had this notion that 30mm round rail bolted to RSJ's might just be rigid enough. I looked at what was available and went for 230x75 parallel flange channel at 25 kg/meter. The rails are all 50cm long.

A surface grinder fitting the traditional definition is a damn accurate and sophisticated piece of equipment. Just because some home-made lash-up makes sparks and may make stuff sort of flat doesn't make it a surface grinder any more than a kid in a cape riding down the garage roof on a bicycle is going to "up! up! and awaaay!"

I've seen some different setups trying to imitate a surface grinder, but a surface grinder is best at what it does. If you're looking to hold 0.0004" flatness and paralellism, I doubt a homemade surface grinder will do it. I've seen smaller, bench top models, but haven't worked on any. The ones we have at work are bigger.
Labels: Home Made Surface Grinder. Saturday, July 26, 2008. Things moving along well, but still working on the rails. Well with the first rail sort of done (discovered AFTER i ground it that the damn kid used it as a pry bar for his car, and it has a noticeable curve in it. Will have to grind to match the second one), I am starting on the second.
Homemade Surface Grinder | The Hobby-Machinist great 2) I love your granite surface plate. I only recently scored a used one, so it's unlikely to be used for a surface grinder. 3) Clever arrangement. If it got you what you needed, it's OK, it earns it's keep.
