Don’t throw away your broken tools! Angle Grinder Hack

- Instead of throwing away your old tools maybe you could find a new use for it or at least some of the interesting mechanisms inside. I'm reusing a broken angle grinder to make a new tool for my workshop!
Thank you very much for watching!
Big thanks to all my patrons!

That is the best drill press quick conversion jig I've seen on here.
Thanks!
Brilliant, I didn't expect the drill press powering it up until I saw it. Well done.
love the way you used the table saw to cut round shapes, no wood burn either very impressed!
Thank Ollari's! What a well thought out design, I will definitely give it a shot. Just wish I could like it 1k times. Count me as one of your ardent followers
I was wondering how you were going to make that dead motor work. Turned out you were just using it for the right angle hearing. Very cool idea! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Very interesting use of junk tool. Clever, good job!!
Brilliant idea and execution.
Wow that’s amazing. Thanks for sharing.
Nice work as always Sebastian 🙂
Thanks! 😊
Really good one, Seb!
Wow! That's a brilliant idea. Totally love it.
Thanks Marc!
Absolutely love it! Excellent idea!
Great use of up cycling. One change I would do is to put a bend out on the top of the metal plate you fitted to the front. It would help with the dust extraction.
Thanks. I see what you mean bit there’s not enough room. The table part interferes when it’s set to 45degrees. That’s why I had to use thin aluminum. Moving the table further away would make it possible to get a bend in there but a bigger gap at the sanding disk would mean a greater chance to get the workpiece jammed in there when sanding small pieces.
I just happen to have the guts of a grinder waiting for a project. Between you and Izzy Swan it seems inevitable that it will become a disc sander. What I like about this most is that you can make a few discs with different grits and just swap them out if needed.
Good idea!
Absolutely awesome
Nicely thought out and executed 👍👍👍😎
Simply amazing!! You should be very proud of that. You’re awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Bravo! True maker's spirit!
Very cool, man! I was thinking of using the same concept to make a pottery wheel, only with a hand drill. Only need a good speed control. Thanks for this video.
Great idea and execution, my friend! Thank you for the inspiration :)
Thanks a lot Matt!
Some of the best ideas I've seen. Never stops amazing me. Keep it up.
Thanks!
Brilliant idea 👍
This made my day! Absolutely brilliant, both design and function, it just takes your skills to come up with the idea. Don´t we all have good angle grinders with burned motors laying around waiting to be fixed? Thanks for posting!
Awesome!
Super smart, you are the man.
Uber cool ! Thank you Seb !
Thanks Remy!
Thks for sharing your project with us keep them coming ya got my vote keep it up ya got this thks the stuff ya make is useful for me 👍 up
That really is very clever. Really enjoyed watching this.
Thanks a lot!
Brilliant!
🤔 I wonder how many people in the world throw away old, broken tools everyday without knowing they are possibly throwing away another tool that they can use. A tool that can be made like this! It would save them/us from spending more money on another tool 🤦🏻♂️.
All it takes is some knowledge and a little imagination.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and imagination and bringing it to life for us to see that there is more to life, if we just think outside the box a tiny bit.
Couldn’t agree more! I’ll guess taking things apart as a kid just for the fun of it and to see how things work paid off. Even if not everything got put back together.....😅
Excellent!
That is such a great idea! I have a old grinder which only gathers dust atm. 👍👍
Pretty cool!
Thanks man!
Really nice work, excellent reuse for the grinder. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.
Thank you Sam! Merry Christmas!
Nice job
Nicely done & a very clever conversion! 👍👍😉😉
Thanks Steve!
Could idea. I've got a drill press, a broken Makita grinder and I could use a sander like that.
Thanks for the share.
What a ingenious idea!
Thank you!
Great idea. Easy project. Good job
Thanks a lot!
Genius!
Excellent idea and video God bless you and yours!!!
Thank you!
Absolutely brilliant build👌👌👌
Thank you
Very clever.
Merry Christmas. Praying you have a wonderful 2021!
Thank you! Happy holidays!
Love it!
Clever idea. I really like it.
Thanks a lot!
That's pretty cool, Sebastian!
Thanks Billy!
Great idea. When I saw you remove the top gear head and saw the damaged armature, I was sure you were going fix it to the table and use it as a lathe holder pivot while fixing a variable speed drill on the other side to turn table legs or something. Great idea
Thanks! There are so many things that this angle drive could be used for, lathe ,sander, just use it as a Speed reducer or an outboard for a small rowboat like Laura Kampf made it. I have a couple more ideas left just need to find a 2nd grinder that has a good ring and pinion.
Fantastic work, dude! Nicely done! 😃
That's a fantastic jig!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks!
thats genius!!
excellent perfomance
Agora você se superou meu amigo. Meus parabéns!!!
belle idée , bien exécutée ,👏 merci pour le partage👍
Was für eine geniale Idee! Richtiger PRO Woodworker ✌️
Freue mich das es dir gefallen hat!
I have an old grinder but also just got a cheap 2 on one linisher. I was led on when I still seen the amateur attached.
Thank you for great idea :)
Thanks for watching!
What a great idea👌🏻
Thanks Vincent!
tienes mucha calidad en todos tus trabajos, saludos ollaris
Mate that is genius!
Thanks!
Very clever!
Thank you
Great Job 👍
Thanks!
Just awesome
Thanks
Brilliant
I like the idea of using tools for multi purpose. In this case making the attachment for the pillar drill. The ply disc attachment could be better. I'd weld a big flange to the threaded disc in order to get a better fix, more rigidity and reduce any wobble. Great idea.
great Idea!!!
Thanks Marla!
Nice project! Upcycling at it’s best...
Thanks Gustav!
I've been saving my old one for something like this! but mine has such a noisy gears that I doubt I will do anything with it :D
Ha! Probably worn out gears, the oldtimers used sawdust and grease in Truck axels to quiet down the worn out ring and pinion.... 😅
Awesome video such a great idea for repurposing. Nicely designed. Mahalo for sharing! : ) 🐒
Thank you very much! 😊
Nice!
Fantastic!
Thanks man
Nice job Friend! Thanks for sharing the video with us!💖👌👍😎JP
Thanks JP
Your very welcome Friend! Have a great week!😎
that's smart!
so grat idea whit a old anglegrinder👌 cool my frind💚
Thanks Lukas!
Beau travail .
Cool!
Szép munka! Adtál 1 jó 5letet!! Grat!!! ;)
Örülök hogy tetszett! Kivancsi vagyok te mit csinálsz belöle!
Really novel concept. Personally a few alterations I would do would be - removing the remaining armature and ensuring the disk is not dished after truing with the chisels
Hi, i noticed, that you use almost Scheppach brand. How is the brand, are the tools ok?
Cool 😎
What’s the thing he used to check the angle of the blade ?
Genio !
First of, 0:40, love this trick, i've done it myself, makes almost no sense... to anyone watching! 😁
Second, 2:25, you're killing me, flexible hose drain?? This one i'll use! Thanks.
As for the whole build, 10/10 mate, you gave life to it again! Bravo Sebastian and thanks for the idea. Merry Xmas mate! (on X we put anything this year 😉😀😄)
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed the little nuances!
I was wondering for a bit, if the rpm from the angle grinder is not going to be too high, and then you knocked my socks off with the pillar drill...:) well done.
spitzen Idee und auch genial umgesetzt lg
Dankeschön!
The idea is perfect. If you permit me a comment , replace the way of clouing the sand paper by velcro
Spitzenklasse!
Dankeschön Volker!
Am geilsten finde ich ja die Idee selber. Muss man erstmal drauf kommen! 👍🏻
Aber eine Frage: das Sandpapier hast du geklebt, oder? Wie wechselst du das dann?
Das hab ich mich auch gefragt. Besser wäre mit Klett oder sowas gewesen, damit man immer ein neues Papier dran machen kann.
Danke! Den sprühkleber kannst du ganz einfach mit der Heißluft Pistole warm machen dan löst er sich ein bisschen.
Ich mache das genauso an den tellerschleifer den ich für meine Drechselbank gebaut habe seit ein paar Jahren so. Klett geht kaputt, ist nicht in jeden Durchmesser zu finden und ist auch teuer als herkömmliches Sandpapier.
@@Ollaris Ah, ok das wusste ich nicht, danke für den Tipp! 👍🏻
Very great, the idea is just awesome
Thank you very much! 🙂
At first, I thought you'd be making a small disk sander (a non-oscillating one) 😉
is it as loud as the grinder was , or did it quiet the 90 deg gear noise ?
It’s much quieter since the grinder was turning about12000rpm. You can definitely hear the angle drive,but it’s not any louder than my other sanders
@@Ollaris cool always figured it was like that , but never had a old one to take apart ,tks for the info
where are you from?
Damn. Video comes out the DAY AFTER I ditched an old angle grinder. Now I’m going to be on the hunt for another piece of garbage to make awesome like this
Sorry 😅
hello sebastian .... I wish you a Merry Christmas
Thank you! Merry Christmas!
If you're sharpening sharp things on it sharpen on the side of the wheel spinning away from the tool so you don't catch the sharp edge into the sandpaper.
That’s true for grinders and belt sanders. Although I wouldn’t sharpen anything on a disc sander, The upward spinning disc could catch the tool upwards, right where the operator stands. Getting a chisel or a blade in the face is not fun.
@@Ollaris Someone could use honing compound instead of sandpaper though, and they could put a guard on the side that's spinning the wrong way just use a quarter of the surface... I wouldn't suggest that to someone without a guard.
👍👍
Good idea, but add a metal or plastic Tube around the old anglegrinder rotor for safety. The old rotor has sharpe edges wich can catch your hair( if you have long hair) or any clothes.
I see your point. But the same rules apply when working on a drill press or any rotating power tool.
😊👍
👍👍👍👍👍
What is the music
My buddy just trashed a burnt up angle grinder too. Damn.
👌😁
👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
