help me design my disk grinder

It don't get more tool talk than this:

I just picked up a 3/4hp 1100rpm VFD motor (56 frame) and drive controller. This will give me reversable and variable speed...so...now I'm looking for input on making a disk grinder. I'll be getting one of Rob Frinks beveled 9" disks for direct shaft drive. I'm guessing I'll want to use it mostly horizontal but would like to be able to swing it up and use it vertical with an adjustable work table. Any help, designs, suggestions and/or pictures would be appreciated.

I think Bob said he had one like that.

Once the machine is made, bolt it to a frame that can swivel 90' and lock into position. A small angle iron frame should do the trick.
One bolt in the bottom corner for a pivot, and matching holes in the positions desired. Set up would only take a minute or two.
