Sorry, Nexus is the name I was thinking of. I met the guy and visited his shop, he was good to deal with and priced fairly.
No, but after seeing the Nexus I have considered selling my current one in order to purchase a Nexus.
hello Peter
finally found a couple of photos of the eerf grinder when it was newly completed, its an interesting design in that the majority is cut from 1/4" plate and then layered with each other to get the desired size, most plasma cutters can handle 1/4" without a problem so its may be easier to find someone to help with that task . changing attachment is similar to others as there is 2 receivers
built in

I skimmed through some of the documentation on the Blog link. Lots of info on the VFD, general setup etc. That looks good.

But is it a 'bolt-together' when you get the kit, or does it require any welding to complete? I don't want to tax you with questions, I can certainly reach out to the guy.
This looks very intriguing though. Close to home & seems like a good platform to add other d-dad's which I could handle. I have to do some bench building & shop re-org before this could arrive anyways, so no rush. Everything else I saw was USA based, very spendy. There are some Ebay kits that look interesting too but a bit more 'speculative'.
The chassis is fully assembled as you see it in the photos, there isn't any welding for you to do. You do have to provide your own motor and VFD or purchase the VFD that he sells which is top of the line.
As I said, I only met the gentleman once to buy some belts from him and he was great to deal with. He makes all of the grinders himself and stands behind everything he sells.
You are more than welcome to check out my belt grinder set up for a comparison.
Generally speaking you get good life from a 2x72 belt . they come in diffrent material that affects there life and price. Alum oxide grit is the least expence and of course shortest life. You also change belts for type of work. Corse grit for rough shaping fine grits as the project starts to take shape but long story short you will have to experiment to see what works for you and the materials you are using
