A hollow grinding jig i'm messing with

[nate d.]

This is a grinding jig i'm messing with cause i'm not able to hold a hollow grind well. ALL tubing is one inch square, 0.080 wall. the slots are an O drill bit. The bolts to hold it to the frame are 5/16 diameter. for vertical height adjustment threaded rod is 0.5 in diameter. The first iteration is square tubing the angle iron lays on top of, however the next type may be one inch diameter tubing. the angle iron is 3 inch and heavy wall don't recall what wall thickness, but enough to hold threads for the clamp bar. I've used it on two knives now and making knives is now fun. thanks,

An advertisement for Rob at Beaumont metal work: if you need a tracking wheel get one from these guys. i tried making one work for many years and can't believe the quantum leap in improvement of my machine. oh and there isn't a wait while me makes them. the following day after placing my order i get this fed ex tracking number, surprising me. the grinding belt now tracks perfect, machine operates much quieter, and leads to a more enjoyable grinding experience.

Now that's what I call using your head to solve a problem.
