Can you post some pictures of a 2” grinder you have built?

You guys designing and prototyping the conversion pieces are amazing!! The expanded capability of the Vevor sharpener will be a great addition. I received the larger collets and chuck on the weekend, I can now expand my sharpening to 17mm, thank you for the links to the additional tooling...

Ok sign me up for a spare motor, and a great big thank you for all the research you are doing on these machines!! I am so happy with the purchase of my B machine and have ordered the larger size collet holder and collets up to 17mm. I am in Edmonton Is there a source for purchasing spare...

Well I just got my new ball oiler in the mail from “Myford Spares” in the UK today. Not cheap but the building quality is great!! Part number 15472 Oil Gun https://www.myford.co.uk/product/myford-oil-gun-15472-2/

Beautiful ‘68, personally I don’t care if it’s a tribute or genuine Shelby, it is the most beautiful Mustang ever made, my dream car for over 50 years. My first car was a 65’ fastback, red, painted as a Shelby clone, stripes and all. In 1979 I was offered a very tired 68’ GT 500KR as a straight...

Shipping from Vevor is free! You know you deserve it!

Thanks! I will check that one out

Thanks David, that’s getting closer. I will visit their shop after Christmas and ask for options.

My Christmas present arrived today, a Vevor 3B drill bit sharpener. I read plenty of reviews and watched YouTube videos of owners testing them out. This makes my Drill Doctor look like a stone axe. This machine is amazing! It’s easy to use, comes with collets for 2 to 13mm. I sharpened over...

I heard back from E Motors direct… the 3 phase 2 hp motor is not outrageous but the cost of the VFD??? I hope there are much cheaper but still decent quality VFD options. Brook Crompton PF4N002-2 Your Price: $333.50 + $33.70 shipping + taxes Lead Time: we can ship this on December 24th, and it...

I have sent an email to Motors Direct, they have an outlet in Edmonton, I asked for a recommendation for a 3 phase 2 hp to fit my small knee mill and a VFD to go with it. I am no machinist, I am retired and restore vintage motorcycles, mostly Italian makes, I often need to fabricate parts or...

My shop, I am no machinist, retired and I restore old Italian motorcycles, out of necessity I accumulated machine tools to fabricate parts and carry out repairs as finding parts or small shops willing to carry out these small projects is becoming increasingly difficult and I enjoy learning new...

Thank you for the advice, much appreciated. I need to start shopping for a 3 phase motor.
