Homemade Air Raid Siren made from a bench grinder

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this tutorial I show how to make an air raid siren using a standard bench grinder bought from amazon and plywood, its howl is quite loud but not so loud the neighbours complain
Bench grinder used was an Einhell TH-BG 150 and can be found here goo.gl/O9cCiP

    That is an excellent project!!! There is one issue however, its the motor. It does not have enough torque to pull the needed air through the siren. I have basically the same grinder from Lidl and it does to have the power to do grinding. Try covering one side of the air intake and see if the tone on the remaining side increases. If so it shows that the motor lacks the power to pull the air through properly. Think I might do one of these as well. Alway nice to prank someone.

    ​@@projectmayhemUK or do a Colin Furze and gear it up. A kids' pedal tricycle flipped upside down might give you everything you need if you can replace the pedals with a drive plate attached to the grinder. Another option: out with the bench grinder, in with a pair of angle grinders, but they might be a bit too torquey and just wreck the rotor. You'd definitely want a guard on them :D
