I've got several bench grinders that I would like to mount on some sort of movable pedestals. I don't want to anchor them to the floor so whatever I end up using needs to be stable but portable. I've

I just have a 6" sewer pipe with two pieces of C channel on the ends. It's free standing, but heavy enough to hold still when in use. Note, I also have 2 grinders mounted, back to back, on them. I ju

Brad, What my neighbor did for all his tools like that was to purchase some stands from Sears and put wheels on them. Similar to this: http://www.sears.com/craftsman-workstation/p-00922284000P?prdNo=

My dad has had a couple of grinders on stands using old semi-truck wheels as the base. They are extremely stable and don't move around. They have been this way for years (30+). They consist of a piec

Relating to an earlier post on another topic, I have had bad experiences with my F250's brakes. The good news is the wasted rotors make nice heavy bases for different kinds of tool stands, including

I second Doug's idea. Assorted pieces of plywood with a 1x2 screwed to them make good bases. I clamp it in my Black and Decker Workmate. Another option is to attach your pedestal to a sheet of thicke

I went the wheel-and-post route ~15 years ago and have been very happy with the stability. Bonus is you can roll it easily over short distances to do minor repositions. --Kent --Original Message-- Fr

Doug, interesting idea. I've got one of the Black & Decker Workmate benches and some plywood laying around. I might give it a try before spending money on wheels and pipes. Thanks! Brad _____________

Eric, how stable is that pedestal? Looks like it would tip over when applying pressure to the wheel while grinding or buffing. _______________________________________________ Shop-talk@autox.team.net
