Stand for angle grinder angle grinder for stationary cutting

Important points when building a pendulum grinder

The type of tool under consideration belongs to the category of dangerous, so the construction of equipment takes into account such main points:

  • Making the bed. this is the base that is responsible for the reliability of the installation. No one can skimp on the frame, so only steel materials with a thickness of at least 2 mm are used
  • Frame. the construction of this part can be different, but the most important is to provide mobility of the cutting tool. This is achieved by using different materials, but in any case, think through the quality of the hinge connection must be good, because your life depends on it. It is better to spend more material, but make a quality and safe cutting machine
  • Tool mounting. the angle grinder is fixed directly on the mobile part. And the fixation must be maximum-reliable and qualitative. When working with an angle grinder, “backfire” can occur, which is dangerous in that the machine can simply get damaged, and this will hurt the master who performs the manipulation
  • Provide arrangement of a counterweight. it is a small, but important element that allows the tool to return to its original position when it is not needed. It will eliminate the possibility of damage to human body parts
  • Protective cover. it is mandatory, no matter what design of the machine, but it is strictly prohibited to use the device without a protective cover
  • The presence of a ruler. this will increase the accuracy of the work being done, which is important when cutting parts such as tile, ceramic, and metal
  • The starting device. this is also a kind of device that affects safety. The control button should be in close proximity to the handyman doing the work. This allows you to react quickly at the right moment by cutting off the power to the tool

In addition to the options when the machine has a moving part, there are also ways to manufacture cutting devices with the location of the tool in the bottom of the bed or workbench top. However, this variant is only suitable for cases where sawing of wood is planned. Here is an example of how to make a home sawmill from an angle grinder quickly and easily. Details on making home sawmills can be read in this article.

Variant

These stationary models are more complex, but provide a more precise cut of the material.

What you will need to do:

  • Work table. Its frame is not difficult to weld from a channel or angle. Sheet metal is suitable as a worktop, although particleboard, fibreboard or FSF is often used. It all depends on the purpose for which the unit is assembled and what kind of workpieces the craftsman expects to work with.
  • Framed construction. One part is immovable and serves as a support. It is installed on the tabletop and fixed by bolts or welding. The second by means of an articulated joint. to the first. This is where the “angle grinder” is mounted, the position of which can easily be changed by hand. The tool is reset to its initial position with springs.
  • Ruler. It helps to set the required dimensions of cut samples. Alternatively is a strip of iron or a tube with marks and a movable marker.

In principle, there is nothing particularly complicated here. If the idea itself is clear, then it is not difficult to make your own drawing, having determined the linear parameters of the machine components.

What to consider:

  • There are various models. In some “angle grinder” is located under the table top, in others. above it. From a safety point of view, the second option is safer.
  • In a table top it is necessary to make a cutout on a mowing line adjoining to it a disk angle grinder.
  • If there is a basic knowledge of electrical engineering, it is better to ensure the inclusion of the machine through a magnetic starter, and the button to combine with a pedal. The angle grinder can then be stopped at any time with your foot, even if your hands are full.

Do not forget about the elementary safety requirements. After completing the assembly machine should be “driven” at idle speed and make sure that there is no beating abrasive disc. it should not hinder the protective casing.

What you may need to make the bed

Drawing of the base made of metal

Before you start making a bed for an angle grinder, you should decide what kinds of work this machine will perform. Stand for the angle grinder, your own hands made, can be much more functional than industrial products. The type of mounting of the angle grinder on the base. vertical or horizontal. is of great importance. The depth of cutting largely depends on it. The type of attachment also depends on the nature of the work to be performed.

For cutting materials on a stationary working table angular grinder is mounted on a pendulum bracket of angles or profiled pipes. If it is necessary to cut large sheets of steel, textolite, plywood, the grinding machine is mounted on a movable carriage moving on rails made of angles or channels. Having decided on the design, you should prepare the necessary tools and materials in advance.

  • angle grinder;
  • drilling machine;
  • welding machine;
  • grinding wheel;
  • pliers;
  • screwdriver set;
  • a set of wrenches;
  • measuring tools.
  • Steel corner 40×40;
  • steel angle 50×50;
  • 5U or 6 channel.5U (for the guides of the moving carriage);
  • scraps of water pipes;
  • 15×15, 20×20, 25×25 profile pipes;
  • bearings;
  • hardware;
  • tin trim;
  • textolite.

Stand for angle grinder with your own hands: drawings and projects

The drawing can be drawn independently, taking into account the size and power of the product, as well as the place of attachment. Stand for angle grinder with their own hands is made on the basis of options found on the Internet, but you should not copy them. it is better to consider photos of already finished fixtures, and, based on them, create your project.

Important! The main tasks of an angle grinder holder are not only to hold the tool, but also to keep it upright and set the correct cutting angle.

Self-made stand for an angle grinder

This is probably the most necessary machine for the garage. Of course, if you use the garage not only for storing the car. It’s a lot of complicated work, but it’s worth it.

Mark the edges at a 45° angle and cut them off.

We square and weld on each side, then weld all the seams.

Finish off first with a simple wheel, then with a flap wheel.

From a 30×30 pipe we make the legs. Hold them in position when welding will help the magnetic angle.

You need to nail and drill two pieces of pipe with a diameter of 10mm.

On one side of the square find the center, at an equal distance from it we will fasten the rack supports.

Attach the pieces with a magnetic angle to the base and weld. The distance between them is about 6cm.

We cut out a cover for the top of the construction and also weld.

ANGLE GRINDER STAND (UNIVERSAL TRADING)

Each new part is carefully deburred.

Now we make a lever. We take an elongated nut, attach it alternately to both sides of the profile piece and circle.

Use an angle grinder to cut the hole according to the markings.

Screw this nut on the bolt and, with the help of an angle grinder, weld it in place.

From the front side of the nut we mount a blanking plug. Weld the gaps.

Now we have to make the ears. We mark and drill the holes on 4 mm thick steel.

Screw these ears to the angle grinder over the washers on both sides.

Now we weld the ears to the lever. We’ll weld them together with the angle grinder, then remove the tool and weld the seams completely.

Fix another tube to install the clamp. It will perform the role of adjusting the slope of the circle.

Make the clamp from a 2mm thick strip. First, we bend it by hands, then, with the help of a hammer and vice, we make the necessary shape.

Drill 8 mm holes in the clamps. Strip it, put the bolts in, tighten the nuts, tighten the nuts, pull the bolts out and weld.

Drill a hole in the lever, in which we insert the axle with a thread of 8 mm. Tighten up by welding.

Remove the clamp and axle and complete the connection. This axis will regulate the angle of inclination.

Then we weld the crosspieces. Using an angle, level and bolts, set the distance and weld.

We lengthen the lever a bit. This will be used to hold the handle.

Weld a nut to the plate and seal the hole with it. Then instead of the bolt here will be the handle from the angle grinder.

Attach hooks to fix the spring. All the open edges are welded over with metal.

In the corner we make 3 holes, on which the material will lean. Re-insert it and drill the holes for the fasteners. At the bottom there will also be welded nuts for bolts.

To make the clamping device, we weld a bolt to the extended coupling nut.

On a piece of the profile we measure out the future workpiece and drill a hole M8 for a stud.

Insert the pin and swivel into the prepared profile.

A long stud with a nut is welded to the base and a part with a swivel is put on it. We cut off the excess, put a nut on it, and weld a piece of steel rod to it.

The first question faced by the domestic handyman in the construction of the stand for the angle grinder. what to make it out of? The answer to this question is elementary: we’ll use what we have and make it. If you have any plumbing pipes handy, they can be used to make the pivots and guides. If there is a metal corner. make a frame of it.

The main and most difficult node of the pendulum cut-off saw is the hinge knot. It carries the greatest loads, and the pendulum arm should not be able to swing to the left or right arbitrarily. Treat the construction of this unit with the utmost care. It is ideal to use roller bearings. Choose a couple of suitable dimensions and make the rest of the construction “around them.

It is best to make the mounting of the pendulum arm on ball or roller bearings. This will provide the best accuracy and rigidity. But if there are no suitable off-the-shelf products, you can look up makeshift designs for this unit.

If there are no ready-made bearings, find pairs of metal tubes and steel pins of suitable diameters. This makes it possible to make homemade bearings that are not very high quality. For the “plywood” machine as a suspension for the pendulum lever good hinges, used for fixing doors and gates, will do just fine.

In any case, it’s better to make pendulum lever from metal angle or metal profile. But the holder, in which the angle grinder will be fixed, will probably be made of a wooden bar.

For reliable and tight fixation of the angle grinder in the holder, it is better to cover the bed with soft and durable material. For example, with leatherette. And it is convenient to clamp the angle grinder to the holder with flexible metal ties with a screw knot. These are widely used in plumbing and auto service.

The base is best made of thick sheet metal. Compromises are possible, right up to thick plywood, fixed on the wooden bar frame. It is good to foresee on the working table the possibility of fixing stop angles to the axis of the cut at some standard angles. That way we get a “mitre saw”.

Don’t forget that now you can’t operate the angle grinder on the machine in the usual way. We can replace the operator’s hand on the control keys with the same screw ties for pipes. But the keyboard control post (which we will fix on the base plate), the socket for inclusion in the chain of a fixed angle grinder and wire with a plug long enough to include the entire machine into the network should be pripasti.

If we have metal workpieces, it is best to connect them by welding. If you do not have such an opportunity, it is better to turn to familiar craftsmen of this business. Bolt connections over time come undone and negate all the advantages of the metal frame.

Of course, in the manufacture of the machine will come in handy and the angle grinder itself. When cutting workpieces for a rack with it, you can feel like Munchausen pulling himself out of a swamp by his pigtail.

This is a handy accessory which turns a simple “angle grinder” into a cut-off and mitre saw.

You can cut quickly and accurately, at various angles. and the universal holder is suitable for most angle grinders with a blade diameter of 115 mm and 125 mm.

View of the stand. base with tool clamping stand, handle, and part mount installed.

Accordingly, received everything fairly quickly (about 8 days) from stock.

Components of the disassembled stand are tightly packed inside.

Kit pictured. To assemble you will need to mount the stand to the base, plus screw in the handle.

Large parts are tightened with plastic ties.

Instructions for assembly and use are included.

Guide and handle in a separate bag.

Attachment for the angle grinder. Fixing bolts are present.

Two types of bolts and two rubber cap screws are present to secure the angle grinder body.

Stand base for the stand. Workpiece clamp present.

The size of the stand is approximately 28 cm (square).

On the bottom side you can clearly see the nuts, preinstalled in slots.

Warning label: get in, it’ll kill you! Adjustment must be carried out with the equipment switched off.

No problems during assembly.

Nuts are secured on the reverse side by a slot shape, only a hexagonal key is needed to tighten the screws.

The stand itself is assembled. Checking out the tilt mechanism.

After pushing, it returns to the upright position.

Lowered almost to the stop. With the angle grinder in place, the vertical travel of the stand will be reduced.

Guide and eccentric clamp for the part.

The stand is formed as if a vise for fixing the cut workpiece, from a fixed and movable part.

Fixed part lets you set desired cutting angle.

Movable part as a clamp with an eccentric allows to quickly tack any size of a part.

Retighten the nut as needed, and turn the knob to secure the clamp.

A few words on the clamping of the angle grinder in the stand.

Threaded holes in tool body for mounting a handle.

Handle with an angle grinder previously remove, and align the holes with the holes in the mount and tighten the screws. The second pair of bolts is needed to fix the body. Plus horizontal screws with rubber tips. allow you to level the angle grinder body. First of all, let’s align everything and see if the cutting disc fits into the groove in the base. If necessary, you can move the rack to the left or right.

I used a stand angle grinder to cut the calibrated guides and running screws 8 mm for the CNC machine.

Diameter is 8mm, but it is important to have a good cut of the end face.

Let’s try it on, set the required length of the cutoff.

The cut should be straight, perpendicular.

Be careful with the tool, observe safety precautions. It is highly desirable to use glasses, as well as to have a power switch at hand.

I used the pieces I got to build my own machines. Grinded the ends.

This is a very useful and unusual device Rack for 115/125mm hammers.

The universal mount allows you to use almost any small “angle grinder”, and the convenient clamping allows you to quickly fix the workpiece for a cut at the desired angle.

Drawings of the stand for the angle grinder

There are not many drawings of such stands on the Internet. Basically they are primitive sketches, illustrating rather the principle of operation of a device than the exact dimensions and order of its assembly. And even those that are available, do not have all the necessary information.

Yes, and the very design of such devices quite often raises doubts about the application of such a drawing without some correction.

Therefore, we advise not to waste time looking for them, and after carefully considering the options of implemented projects to create self-made racks for angle grinder, choose a suitable one for yourself. Or, taking into account their shortcomings, implement your own.
