Let's See Your Stack!

wrmiller19,
I see you have the Craftsman 2 inch belt sander. What do you use it for, and what belts do you run on it? I tried it for sharpening lathe cutters, but HS steel seems to rub the grit right off of the belts. For mild steel or aluminum, it's fine.

So for now, it's back to the ginder for the hss.

Hey Mike,
That is a MultiTool belt grinding attachment from Advanced Machinery that I stuck on the side of my Craftsman variable speed. I've not tried HSS as I don't use it. I use it primarily for shaping stuff mostly made of aluminum, mild steel, stainless, etc. I also use it to put custom grinds on my golf wedges.

I get my belts from this place: http://www.vansantdistributing.com/2x36_Belts_p/blt362.htm

Ok, how do you guys keep things so neat and clean. Mine always looks like a mess even when I work to clean it up.

Hey Ken,
Mostly from entirely too much cleaning! Spent the better part of this afternoon organizing the material (I received some more this last week) and pushing a broom around. Didn't get to make a darn thing.
