Dude, Since when does "A lot of Work" ever hold you back? You're one of the few on you tube that goes way beyond what an average guy would do. You are almost in a league all by yourself. Big Fan!

Little problem with the band saw? I like the center pipe that could hold a 5ton surface grinder if it needed too! lol

Great work

I love the project and the results. They look a little "Art Deco-ish". :)

Great video! You're like the Bob Ross of metalworking! I always tell people that the quality of your tools and shop has a huge impact on how other people perceive you. You don't even have to be around and anyone that sees those grinder stands will know they were built by a quality craftsman who has an eye for design and an appreciation for fine work. It's one of those things that we lost to the mass-production and bean counters controlling everything. It used to be that even our tools were built with beautiful curves and other extravagances that weren't necessary for the job. The designers, though, wanted to create beautiful pieces so that's what they did. Glad to see you bring a little of that back into the world, Dale.

Fantastic craftsmanship! I'm definitely going to borrow some of those ideas for the upcoming shop stool build!

Nice video Dale. I like that you are bringing a little historical architecture into the shop. It's hard to beat the old brake drum and steel rim grinder stands, most guys just want function. It seems not everyone can appreciate a little style.

Past summer I've rebuilt an old 3 phase 8" inch grinder to replace the hobby one I had. The plan was to build a stand for it. Kinda got on the bottom of the priority list. Might be time to move it to the top. Good looking stands you've built, really neat.

Very 'Art Deco' in style, thanks for the upload!

what model benders are you using i see that the two that you use could bend almost anything that i would ever need im building a shop and have only used giant comercial benders for making 36" diameter stainless chimney pipe

Dale, what Diameter is the pipe, looked like between 6" in / 8" in. Great design's. Great inspiration.

@BuildSomthingCool

6 жыл бұрын

I think it 6 Inch . If I had to do it again I would use 5"

I’m curious about the bender you used for the 90s on the flat bar. Can you tell us the maker/model? I’ve been looking and it’s tough to find one designed that well.

Hi Dale, I've got the exact same 4" X 48" belt sander as you. The one on your far right at the close of the vid. The only belts I've been able to find are really meant for wood and suffer premature failure working metal. Do you have a source for green or blue belts that size? Thanx, Alan

Do you have a video on your welding/cutting box bench?

No point in killing some steel unless it is over kill. Nice looking stands. Also much better music than you hear on most of the lame nail and plastic bottle, hot glue building channels.

Very nice, but my initial thought was the time and material spent would put them in the $1000 to $1500 range each. I'm old school, so I guess that's just the cost of "having nice things". Great camera work and editing. Must have taken a LOOOOONG time!

What should a stand weigh to be "tip proof"?

@12345NoNamesLeft

It's not the weight it's the distribution. Top heavy is a problem.

@EvenTheDogAgrees

6 жыл бұрын

Personally, I wouldn't put it on casters, but bolt it to the floor. And fill the stand with cement, or sand, for extra weight and to dampen the vibrations a bit. To help with that, you could also put it on quarter inch rubber pads where the feet are bolted to the floor. Of course, if portability is a requirement, none of that will apply.
